Amazon Review


The Present From Christmas Past” is a very heartwarming short story about a young man’s epiphany about his marriage. A story I really enjoyed because the writer’s wisdom captures the relevance of a lesson that so many don’t learn (or never learn) until it is too late in life. It is well written and reflects a lot of thought and personal experience. I look forward to any new publications by the author.

A blinding Christmas night snowstorm swirls outside. Inside, searing anger is destroying a marriage . As the storm subsides, Christmas morning approaches, gently illuminating a life changing gift.
A well told, insightful story without one unnecessary word.
