Get In Line Rose

Who I Did…

And as Tony Benitoni reflected on his summer, the one creative thought of his entire life popped into his head, and he realized the title of his essay would be: Who I Did On My Summer Vacation. Very little of his story was embellished… KVB.

Sam I Am

The whole human condition is about sex, money, and power, or some derivative of the three; to deny any of them is just to be enslaved more so by the others.

These were Sam’s thoughts as he entered the elevator with his colleagues…

From the Baker project piece Sam I Am.

Irish

Label
Harris pulled two airplane bottles of Baileys out of his pocket and emptied them into their Starbucks coffees.

He put the lids back on the cups and swirled them around.

“I like my coffee, like my women,” he explained to her with a small smile.

“With a little bit of Irish in them.”

As she took her first sip, she contemplated her pedigree.

-From an unreleased chapter of Florida East Coast.

Problems

Every problem has a solution. It is always best to consider all of the options before choosing a premature or ill conceived strategy. Sometimes the best solution is to wait for the problem to resolve itself, or an obvious remedy to materialize. This approach is perhaps the most difficult for humans to accept. Not all problems have an outcome which is to the satisfaction of all the parties involved. KVB.

Welcome

Having written non-fiction for an entire career, this website contains a collection of fictional stories, essays, and even verse, which was patiently riding along in my subconscious for the last four decades, or some part thereof, or in some cases, maybe only the last four minutes… I hope you enjoy and have fun here. I did… KVB.
