Three stories to go with three haiku.
Unpredictable:
Tapping of moth wings
His journey rekindled by
melon-flavored lips
Illinois Corn:
Alabaster skin
Red rash creeps up her arms
Corn scent and knuckles
Jake's Mom:
Mom's endless worry
What is her son up to now?
A theater burns
Includes the eponymous short story "Unpredictable", which first appeared in the premier issue of Battered Suitcase magazine.
Also features a sample chapter from Bryan's novel: "An Epitaph for Coyote."
