Add to basketPaperback. Some people spiral. Some move on.Others run into the same problems in a different city and call it growth.Follow a handful of men and women who look functional on paper-but are deeply unprepared for the emotional messes they keep walking into. Breakups that don't stay broken. Conversations no one wants to have. Friends who won't let them forget how dysfunctional they really are.These aren't love stories or romantic fantasy. They're stories about real people trying to act normal while life quietly unravels. Which would be bad enough on its own.But then there's Pickles. He says things. Awkward things.Foul-mouthed. Impatient. No filter. Pickles observes everything, and remembers what everyone else would rather forget.Dry, honest, and painfully familiar, Pickles Again? is humorous fiction that doesn't follow the script. Written for men. Loved by women. Endorsed by a parrot named Pickles. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Some people spiral. Some move on.
Others get stuck in a room with the wrong person and no clean exit.
Pickles Again? is about forced proximity: awkward, unavoidable, and usually someone else's fault. Personal growth via cringe-worthy exposure that doesn't fix anyone-it just makes them more human. Coping. Adapting. Evolving in ways they'll deny later.
Three linked stories. One recurring problem: Pickles.
Pickles says things. Unfiltered things. An observant macaw with a gift for saying the wrong thing at exactly the right moment.
It's not a thriller. Not a romance. It's pressure with a voice-dry, honest, and familiar in the worst way.
No one signed up for this. Not even Pickles.
Michael P. Clutton has been creating stories and art since he could hold a pencil. What began with cartoons and short fiction grew into a lifelong pursuit of finding the absurd, the heartfelt, and the quietly human in every idea he touches.
Known for his dry humor and wry take on life, Clutton blends imagination, wit, and emotional honesty across genres-from comedy and sci-fi to horror, literary fiction, and even the occasional tongue-in-cheek how-to guide. His work invites readers to laugh, think, and occasionally wince in recognition.
He lives in Southwest Florida with his wife, where inspiration comes as easily as the humidity. When he's not writing, he's probably drawing, fishing, or pretending his poker face still works.
