A boy who speaks like a frog, a cowboy with incredible luck, a ghost looking for closure, and a 1977 Canadian quarter with a history; these are just some of the characters you'll meet in the stories contained in this collection. J.R. Vikse has spent over six years writing, editing, re-writing, and finally compiling the twenty stories in this eclectic collection. Comedy, tragedy, poetry, and prose rub elbows inside these pages, so no matter your mood, you'll find something to love. Whether you have a rainy afternoon to cuddle up and devour it cover-to-cover or only a fifteen-minute coffee break, you're sure to find a new favourite tale in this unique medley of short stories.
J.R. Vikse is a Canadian author, who, after years of imagining stories using nothing but his brain and a superfluous pile of Lego, finally decided to try his hand at writing them down. Whether it works out or not is up to you. He was an early reader, since there wasn't ever much else to do during Canadian winters, but he didn't get into serious writing until his 20s. Jason wrote his first short story in 2008, and has pecked away at the keyboard ever since. He published his first book, The Lazy Postman, in May of 2012, and always has more projects on the go than he probably should. When he isn't writing, which isn't often, he can be found onstage, where he employs other forms of story-telling as a director and actor, mostly in the genre of musical theatre. He has directed or performed in fifteen productions in two countries over the last seven years. He currently lives in Zürich, Switzerland with his wife, Krista, who mercilessly edits his work to great effect, with much love and affection, he is assured.
