    About this ebook

    Stories of love, poems of memory and recess. The kitten stole my cat's cradle string and now it's hopelessly tangled. I left the sad remains in a nearby playground, where a robin later used it for a winter nest. Everything comes around to where it needs to rest sometimes. Blessed be.

    Brian S. Parrish

    Author Brian Parrish is an awed believer in the power of story and a regular patron of the dreaming. However, he's best known as a virtual stunt pilot, human cannonball coach, Indianapolis slot car racer and tender tiger tamer—in a parallel universe, that is, where his Elkhart Blue 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS has been impounded for extraordinary parking fee accumulation. In this one, he scribbles the odd story and subscribes to the International Psychic Cat Network. He lives in the rolling red hills of Virginia with an ambling caravan of family, friends and familiars.
