Colin Knapp has compiled twenty short stories that showcase a wide variety of human emotions, desires, and compulsions. Old love, young love, and every version in between shine through in intimate snapshots of life-changing experiences.
In the first story of Shady Trails in a Light Fog, a young boy longs for baseball greatness. Johnny Frisina is twelve years old and determined to win his first championship title and the Webster Award. As Johnny finds out, the prestigious award and generous monetary stipend come with strings attached. As he and the rest of his team try to decide on a fair way to split the prize money, he faces his first adult problem and learns what it means to have character.
The stories that follow emphasize and expand upon the same themes as “The Webster Award.” The fears and flaws of characters are exposed as they struggle to make the right decision in difficult circumstances. In some cases, humans are the enemy. In others, natural disasters and other acts of God are more prominent. Some tales even hint at supernatural happenings and a world beyond our own. Each story, despite different genres and settings, shows readers something new about human nature.
