Life with Boyd

By Matthew David Carroll

an ordinary day of family troubles in this paranormal slice of life

"Chris is in the fourth grade so I’m allowed to walk with him sometimes. I was suppose to go to his house, but his mom and dad wanted to talk to him about something he saw last night. He told me but I didn’t know what it meant and he called me a baby.”

“I’m not a baby!” Boyd says. He gripped the straps of his backpack and doubled his stride along the sidewalk stepping ahead of Chris.

“Yes you are.” Chris replied..."

Hello,For those of you who are new, I hope you enjoy.If you've already read some of these, I'm glad you're back.It's been terrible for building trust and invites all sorts of nonsense, but my lack of presence is better for new readers to get into the story and character. So I'm elusive for that reason, mostly.If you're interested in getting to know me, forgive us, you can check my other social media for that, but I'm afraid you won't find much at the moment. I keep putting it off.Some of these are quick easy reads I hope will leave you laughing or with some sort of satisfied wonder (I know. I'm finishing them.) Others are over stylized with complex plot structures that require inquisition.I can't promise you'll like everything I write, but you'll know (for the most part) what you're getting into.Complex issues, simple themes. Characters opinions are their own.If you like any of them please share. I appreciate every one of you who have.
