Scars

Trapped for too long inside the author's head, these stories have finally escaped!



Like the story of the church youth leader who offered her favorite 15-year-old boy a ride home but parked in a dark alley instead. What did she need? Using the ten commandments as code, you find out in "Separation of Church and Sex."



And then: a single mother, who teaches school in the winter, ties her 10-year-old boy to a tree all day while she sells encyclopedias in nearby villages. Is this normal, small-town parenting or child abuse? In "Scars," you get to decide.



When a high school boy is tricked and walks into an outhouse shit pit, his friends' response literally blew the minds of those in the village. For the first time, the author identifies the architect and spills the beans on how it went down in "Punk."



The author humorously compares his coaching style to Bob Knight's in "Eat Your Heart Bobby, You'll Never Have a Win Like This."



In the heartwarming story, "My Friend Chester Long," the author offers you another way to use "Yep."



Finally, Suriname is a country. "What is Curry?" invites you to smell the nation's exotic mixtures, get comfortable with Elvis (the neighborhood boa), and ride along on a wild love affair through the Caribbean that ends in an earthquake surprise.
