I’ve just started posting one-minute stories on my Instagram account; you can also see them here! So far I am posting once a week. They will be on a variety of topics, both fiction and nonfiction, anything that captures my interest. Here are the first two: the first is called The Other Side, and is a Buddhist tale. The second is called The Owl, and is a true story that happened to me. It is also one of the most extraordinary experiences of my life. If you’d like to read a poem detailing my experience of the owl, and if you’d like to see a picture of the magical beast, please click on The Big Gray Blur, above.
