Observers and Other Stories

   Can you recognize the turning points in your life when they overtake you? The women and men who populate the short stories in Observers and Other Stories find themselves in situations – some mundane, some extraordinary – that will probably change them forever, though they don't always realize that's what's happening.   One character acquires a lonely dog, one begins to recognize the harbingers of an alien encounter, another watches an eclipse on a wild night in New Orleans, and still another unexpectedly finds that she has outgrown an old love; all experiences that probably have deeper consequences than even the stories' conclusions might suggest.
