Stories in this collection, such as HERE'S MASHED, A DIFFERENT KIND
OF DAY, WITH ALL HIS HEART, along with a few others, all depict
contemporary lives in conflicts of one kind or another, until
something interesting happens to change things. The style is in the
manner of modern minimalism, where character and behavior are
depicted rather than described, more like a film or show than an
account. Stories like I HEARD THEIR LAUGHTER and BRIAN'S LAW are
quite different. These are longer treatments of rather inordinate
lives. The first depicts the state of a math freak cooped up under
the roof of an abandoned building, pondering the life he should
have lived but had refused. Then something happens to redeem it.
BRIAN'S LAW depicts a fourteen year old boy who thinks he is
smarter than Einstein. The tale makes certain demands on the reader
but is guaranteed to fascinate those interested in such things and
who stick it out. It is the author's favorite work, by far. Bernard
(Bud) Scott wrote these stories in between the demands of his
career as an entrepreneurial computational linguist, a career
depicted at http: www.logosinstitute.org/LogosStory.html. He is a
published poet, anthologized essayist, and award-winning short
story writer, and has published several novels, most recently, The
Heart Hath Its Reasons.
