I’m pleased to announce I have been invited to participate in a unique writing project with several very talented writers, whose work I admire.

Triptychs is the third book in the Mind���s Eye Series. ��The book combines visual art and the written word, in the form of short stories and poetry. ��In Triptychs, the same��photograph was given to three different writers, and each had to interpret the image and write either a story or a poem. ��A unique take on a collaborative writing project, it is fascinating to see how one picture can��inspire three completely different tales.

I’ve posted a teaser below, in the form of the photographs I was given and some notes about the stories I was inspired to write. ��Once it is released, I’ll post the links.

This first photograph inspired me to write the story��A Storm is Coming, the tale of two very different sisters and what can happen when jealousy rears its ugly head. ��I’ll admit I must have been in a strange mood when I wrote the story, as I began with haiku’s to set the scene.

This beautiful photo of a carnival at sunset had me stumped for the longest time. ��I stared at it repeatedly for almost two weeks before finally coming up with an idea, prompted by a suggestion from my wife. ��I was finally inspired to write the story��A Kiss at Sunset, about a young man who finally finds the love of his life – in a manner of speaking.
