But what if these units had a greater purpose? What if each unit could take you someplace else or show you what you most needed to see? What if they were your long-forgotten belongings’ chance at a second life? Well, that is what we now invite you to experience. From emotional to hilarious, from cozy to action packed, come learn the stories of these treasure troves and the people they belong to.
We hope you enjoy the journey and maybe you too can then see the wonderful in the mundane.

Canyon Lake Area Writers (CLAW) was formed in 2011 to bring writers of all experience levels and genres together to share their work, exchange ideas, offer constructive critiques, and learn more about the craft and business of writing.
Our goals are simple: improve our writing, inspire one another, share creative exercises, provide thoughtful feedback, explore paths to publication, enjoy the camaraderie of fellow writers, and, above all, have fun.
Over the years, CLAW has helped many writers grow in their craft. More than 20 current and former members have gone on to publish books and short stories, with others currently making their way through the publishing process. But publication isn't the only measure of success. At CLAW, we believe writing is worthwhile simply because we enjoy doing it. Whether we're writing for publication, for ourselves, or just to see where an idea takes us, we celebrate the creativity and fun of telling a story. This anthology is a perfect example.
Our writing prompt was deceptively simple: You own a storage facility. You rent a unit. Or you buy the contents of one sight unseen. You open the door and… What happens next is up to the writer.Each author took that single prompt in a different direction, opening the door to stories of mystery, humor, suspense, surprise, and perhaps a few things better left behind.
So, take a peek through the door with us.
You never know what you might find.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
