2021-04-0107 minDark Part Of The MindStory 41: Play PretendThis is an exclusive to the podcast, not in the book or published anywhere else. Found it digging around my email. Hope all three of you enjoy.
2021-02-2102 minDark Part Of The MindStory 40: Maybe NotYet another instance of writing something I have no experience in.
2021-02-1501 min2021-02-0401 minDark Part Of The MindStory 38: Travel To MeOutside my usual space, kinda sci fi type story that explores what I would do if found in such a situation.
2021-01-2203 minDark Part Of The MindStory 37: I'mFirst one of the year, haven't recorded in a while (generic excuse)
2021-01-0402 minDark Part Of The MindStory 36: Leave it thereThis has some truthfull elements in it, some of those things described actually happened to me but, like the story says, do they matter?
2020-11-2002 minDark Part Of The MindStory 35: Look upThis is obviously an extreme example but, tried tovshow the power of positive thinking with this story. Yet another one where I had the ending in my head before the rest of the story.
2020-11-1003 minDark Part Of The MindStory 34: Pop goes the brainAnother example of how most if my stories are, not inspired by anything in particular.
2020-10-2801 minDark Part Of The MindStory 33: Do What Exactly?This story took me three years to write. I had the last sentence bouncing around for years before I could flesh out the rest.
2020-10-1705 minDark Part Of The MindThanks for listeningMy own personal thank you to anyone in America or anywhere else listening to the podcast.
2020-10-1701 minDark Part Of The MindStory 32: Where Am I?I took mostly inspiration from Vietnam, but kept it vague enough it could be set in the future or applied to most any conflict.
2020-10-0903 min2020-10-0203 minDark Part Of The MindStory 30: Closet SpaceNo real feedback from someone eating on the other side of the fence, so, all these thoughts could be out of line.
2020-09-2503 minDark Part Of The MindStory 29: Past LivesThis is another example of my taking actual experiences I had in the military and creating stories from them.
2020-09-1802 minDark Part Of The MindStory 28: DramaticIf you haven't noticed a theme, you will. Again, just off the top of my head.
2020-08-2802 min2020-08-2102 minDark Part Of The MindHalfway point reflectionHere are the thoughts and inspiration behind each story. TIME STAMPS: HELP 2:00. STOP ALREADY 4:10. I'M RIGHT HERE DAMNIT 5:35 SECRETS 9:17 CHOO CHOO! 10:20. I LIKE IT? 10:56. NEVER AGAIN 11:56. FIRST TIME 13:16. IT'S WHAT 14:35. THANK YOU___ 15:30. LOOK AWAY 16:30. KA-BOOM 17:02 CLEAN 17:50. I'M OUTTA HERE! 18:50. EM QUESTION MARK 19:27 UNFINISHED 20:25. WHAT IS IT? 21:02. HEARTBEAT 21:37. WASTED LIFE 22:35. BACK WHEN 23:50. ONLY 24:30. BESTEST DADDY 25:03. TOO LATE 26:01. NOT TODAY 27:16
2020-08-1829 minDark Part Of The MindStory 26: Not TodayThis is an example of using some of my own personal experiences to build upon for my stories. For about a year I would wake up on all fours, scrambling in the sheets, not aware where I was at for a few seconds. Then, the simultaneous relief and dread.
2020-08-1502 minDark Part Of The MindStory 25: Too LateThis was the first story I wrote. It was in the midst of trying to write comedy, but this idea wouldn't go away. Finally, after 6 months, I gave in and wrote it.
2020-08-1402 minDark Part Of The MindStory 24: Bestest DaddyThis, was an idea that wouldn't go away. Kept rolling around in my head until I finally just wrote it down. Upon reading it for the first time, my wife commented "oh I feel so sorry for her". I'm like honey, she doesn't exist. It's literally a figment of my imagination.
2020-08-0702 minDark Part Of The MindStory 23: OnlyAgain. A common theme, but one of "if I were there" how I think I would feel and have felt coming home, trying to explain horror to innocence.
2020-08-0702 minDark Part Of The MindStory 22: Back WhenThis was an early story, one of my earliest indications of my style.
2020-07-1702 minDark Part Of The MindStory 21: Wasted LifeThis story took me three years to write. I had the ending in my head for three solid years before I was able to flesh out the rest of the story. My wife is an educator and said it's her favorite.
2020-07-1610 minDark Part Of The MindStory 20: HeartbeatThis was crazy enough written about a year or year and a half before I faced this exact situation, with my son. Same outcome of course.
2020-07-1604 minDark Part Of The MindStory 19: What is it?One of the few autobiographical stories. If you're divorced you can relate. If not, hopefully this will prevent you being able to relate.
2020-07-1603 minDark Part Of The MindStory 18: UnfinishedHow I feel it would be to experience lost conversations. Again, if I haven't already stated it, never been to war or experienced combat, this is all my imagination.
2020-06-1902 minDark Part Of The MindStory 17: Happy FaceGo listen to the story first, then come back to read the inspiration behind it. *******************************************This story was inspired by a neighbor pulling out of their driveway in the morning while my son was passing by on his tricycle. They pulled out fast, without looking, and had I been a few feet away, or not paying attention, I wouldn't have moved him out of the way in time. Came very close to being hit myself.
2020-06-0503 minDark Part Of The MindStory 16: E.M. Question MarkThis was written in 20 minutes after I was leaving a nursing home with my father in it and saw an E.M.T. walking in. Thought to myself "I wonder what that's like"?
2020-05-2903 minDark Part Of The MindStory 15: I'm Outta Here!Not really inspired by anything in particular, aside from my outings to nursing homes as a kid for my relatives.
2020-05-2204 minDark Part Of The MindStory 14: CleanI feel like this is the story most people get to and truly make their decision on whether to continue interaction with me or not.
2020-05-1505 minDark Part Of The MindStory 13: Ka-BoomThis was inspired by a dream I had. The part about running away from a girl and the explosion part.
2020-05-0803 minDark Part Of The MindStory 12: Look AwayJust my imagination as to what it would be like to be a crime scene photographer.
2020-05-0103 minDark Part Of The MindStory 11: Thank You ____Another example of how I kinda took some of my personal experiences and added them to the overall fiction.
2020-04-2403 minDark Part Of The MindStory 10: It's What?I always tell people that only a few stories in this book are autobiographical, and you'd have to really know me to know which ones. This is one.
2020-04-1703 minDark Part Of The MindStory 9: First TimeI have had war veterans read this story and tell me it's exactly the feelings they had. One guy swore that I had been there but, as I've said, never been deployed.
2020-04-0302 minDark Part Of The MindStory 8: Never AgainThis ironically was written before I had my son, and not 100% sure I could write it again today.
2020-03-2702 min2020-03-2003 minDark Part Of The MindStory 6: Dream AwayThis story is actually not in the book, and can only be found here. Exclusive, huh?
2020-03-1301 minDark Part Of The MindStory 5: Choo Choo!What can happen when your lifetime dream actually happens. Based on a story from when a train engineer came to visit us in high school drivers ed.
2020-03-0602 minDark Part Of The MindStory 4: SecretsTook a little bit of history to include in this story, about the civil war soldiers.
2020-02-2802 minDark Part Of The MindStory 3: "I'm right here, damn it"This talks about what's it's like to experience a flashback. Specifically what I imagine combat flashbacks are like, but truthfully I draw from my own experiences having them. A certain perfume, walking into one room and "waking up" in another because a smell. Other experiences my dad had helped me craft this particular story.
2020-02-2102 minDark Part Of The MindStory 2: "Stop Already"This story touches on my struggles with getting a good nights sleep for the last 20+ years. The pauses you hear are blank spaces in the book because certain individuals are still alive and it's still too personal to share my entire truth.
2020-02-1401 minDark Part Of The MindStory 1: "Help"This is the first story in the book, and was inspired by the obvious, how veterans are bombarded by the word "help" constantly, to the point it's almost a weapon against them.
