“all couples—even ideal ones—occasionally argued, didn’t they? They have a range of emotions. They suffer. That was how they grew. Martha knew this as well as anyone.”
Chris Cander, A Gracious Neighbor

“Her mother had always told her she prattled too much, that she needed to think more before she spoke. The filter between your mind and your mouth is full of holes, she’d often said.”
Chris Cander, A Gracious Neighbor

“May all be fed. May all be healed. May all be loved.”
Chris Cander, A Gracious Neighbor

Bolira64 11 Stories was a compelling book to read. I loved how Roscoe's life interwove with all the tenants in the building. Each could be a mini book in their selves. It was beautifully written and I can't wait to see what you write next..
