And then the universe did everything it could to keep them apart. But sometimes even fate can’t prevent the inevitable. Read on and see how bumping into the right person can make your life infinitely better.

A Story in the Magic Ink Universe
A woman can change a man's life. The right one definitely will. I had remained in Boston that year to see how the Irish there were celebrating Samhain. I missed it that year. I met Leila instead. / (Reviews)

I wanted to include this story along with my reposting of The Sun Also Rises. I tend to carry over characters from story-to-story. And I know that it can be confusing when people from prior stories appear in the middle of new ones. Especially if a lot of time has passed as is the case here. This was written over a year after the Sun Also Rises. I wanted to explore the theme of infidelity between people who are essentially made for each other. The title is from a Hemingway short story.

Everybody knew about those Maitland girls

David experiences love and the heartache of loss in his life, and on his journey of recovery finds it difficult to accept help at all, but especially from an unexpected source. He has to learn that some things shouldn't ever 'go without saying', and finds that not all his friends know when to speak and when to shut up. That needs wisdom, which really does go without saying.

For those of you who read the first one, this is the sequel that I threatened would come. It still remains religious in tone. It features more from the daughters though still told from the father's point of view. I hope you enjoy this effort. It just flowed. You might even find some surprises. RG

A little romantic tale of flawed people. This was originally a contest entry piece but I ran with it when I discovered I like the characters.

A widowed man returns to take a walk along the river bank again. A place that's been special to him since his childhood. Only - because it was interrupted - his walk that day was to be a little different and it wasn't the first time that had happened to him either. / (Reviews)
