    About this ebook

    EQUILIBRIUM: A SYMMETRIC STATE OF MIND is full of stories exploring emotion, including childhood regret in "Carolina Blues" about a woman unhappy with where her life has ended up, and now facing a difficult decision. False beliefs and deception in "Apollo 11: Take 3" where a social media influencer, deemed psychotic by society, must race against the constraints of authority to expose a dark secret. Betrayal in "Bill's Buffalo" where two officers investigate slaughtered livestock at a retired farmer's Montana ranch. Greed in "Never Skip Dessert" where a resourceful, spoiled son is unhappy about sharing his father's genius invention with his assertive little sister, inspired by "The Veldt" from Ray Bradbury's THE ILLUSTRATED MAN.
