The fourteen pieces herein are those sundry writings I have created sandwiched between some forty years of writing novels, penning assessment reports, editing the works of other authors, and trying in general to live as fully and as wisely as possible.Carry On is a collection of fourteen pieces of miscellaneous writings I have created over some forty years. All the works are fanciful, some more than others, and all were written with an eye toward helping me put the world into an understandable perspective. One of my favorite authors is Nobel Laureate Orham Pamuk. When asked once why he writes, he said it is because he needs to construct alternate worlds in order to understand this one.It is the same for me, even though at times it also seems like an affliction, particularly when I am lost in the labyrinth of a novel, wherein understanding comes only after much ado, time, and butting my head against walls have passed in a twilight realm of obfuscation and bewilderment.Be that as it may, it is my sincere hope that these short works of fiction and epistemological conjecture will entertain and perhaps encourage new perspectives in those who read them.
