Dropped Calls
Dropped Calls” is a collection or three short stories that share a common thread, for in each of these stories mankind was given clear and obvious signals he is headed towards ruin, and driven by ignorance, greed, or apathy, continued undeterred. Man is past the point of radical solutions and is in critical need of a paradigm shift, one that holds sacred all of life, and recognizes truth and love as the forces that cement these bonds.
The Attenuating Puritan
Embark on a contemplative journey with our altruistic hero, a reflection of purity in words and deeds, yet occasionally marked by ancestral toxins. With unwavering conviction, he dances under the world’s weight, marching into the unknown, his steps marked by hope and staunch faith.Bound by a noble quest to restore the splendor of Eden, his every gesture is a sacrifice, a stride towards the pristine and divine. Amidst adversities, he stands a fortified pilgrim, mastering the shackles of mind and body, emerging as a triumphant victor, a mirror to us all daring to confront our reflections.He is the champion of tainted sacraments, a crusader against the clutches of heavy metal and forever chemicals, hinting that our destinies might be cradled in such hands. As we tread the path of love eternal, each step taken is righteous, a gentle move towards the boundless cosmos that binds us in love.In The Attenuating Puritan, every breath taken is a whisper of attenuation, every quenched thirst a sigh of grace, and every bounty received a step closer to the celestial, encapsulating a tale of hope, resilience, and the ceaseless quest for the divine amidst the terrestrial.

The author tackles some deep philosophical and sociological ideas through a lens of modern dilemmas from the political to the environmental to the spiritual. Well worth reading purely for the joy of rumination on the authors take on these classic thematic conflicts.
