A Good Medicine Story
Part of the A Well-Lived Life universe
The story of Michael Peter Loucks, A faithful, Russian Orthodox teenager, who has lived his entire life in small-town Ohio. It takes place in the same universe as my series 'A Well-Lived Life'. The story develops slowly. Testimonials: - One of the most accurate depictions of early-1980s rural southern Ohio I have encountered in historical fiction. - Overall, the novel is highly authentic historical fiction, with exceptional period detail that feels lived-in rather than researched. / (Reviews)

A Jack Pierce Chronicles Story
Crashing the Prom is a missing chapter from Feasting with a Silver Spoon. Somehow, in the process of editing, re-writing, and then publishing that story, I simply lost it. In subsequent stories I’ve made several references to that night. I re-wrote it, which was a lot of fun, and posted it in a revised version of Feasting with a Silver Spoon, Chapter 38. If you have the time, read that instead of this.
