Adventures in the Afterlife and Other Such Stories
Adventures in the Afterlife and Other Such Stories is a collection of 20 eclectic short stories of fiction that include spooky, after-death experiences, space travel to the home of all human souls, a deep dive into the mind of a mild-mannered killer, a kooky Tarot card game, a deadly premonition, a journey to Heaven for Divine Justice, judgments of the Egyptian God of the dead, detective work on a murder mystery, and conflict among ancient pre-human species, but not to forget a little satire on current events in the news. These stories are pure entertainment, as well as food for thought and spirit.

Marina Girl
Olivia Michaels knew she was embarking on an adventure when she moved to San Francisco, but she had no idea her address would label her a social pariah commonly referred to as a Marina girl. The Marina girl is a stereotype of a preppy, generic young woman who lives in the tiny neighborhood known as the Marina. You need to know about the history of the Marina to understand how and why the Marina girl developed into the albatross of San Francisco. After the 1906 earthquake, the city pushed all the ashes and rubble north down the steep hills of Pacific Heights, creating a landfill adjacent to a former pasture that later became the Cow Hollow neighborhood. Hundreds of Mediterranean-style homes were constructed in the 1920s on land that jiggled better than Bill Cosbys Jell-O when the 1989 earthquake hit. Most of the longtime residents moved away, leaving yuppie youngsters, perhaps less aware of their own mortality, to take over the neighborhood. Twenty years later, the Marina is the playground for San Franciscos worst nightmare, otherwise known as the Marina girl.
