Peculiar Tales is a collection of short fiction that I’ve worked on, off and on, for years. I decided to post a couple of stories from this in-work book to see what people thought. Edgar Curry is the story of a man who was a worldly success, riding the wave of the dot-com boom through 1999 & 2000. But then, his world was turned upside down as he lost everything he had during the unexpected downturn in the industry. The story is posted as a pdf below. Just click the link. You can print it, and save it to your computer. The document has an excellent cover photo by Walter Arnold. Feel free to email it around. I’d like to get some feedback about what you think!
