Indiscretion: Selected Stories
These stories present the multiple lives of James Hayward. In his words, “I have seen and experienced so many special moments, far beyond all expectations. I have been many times blessed. These stories are “fictional,” based on my reminiscences, “war stories” my buddy Ed Moses calls them, and I tell them, over drink, for the amusement of myself and others.
I’ll always remember the last words my mother ever spoke to me, when I, for reasons unknown, asked her, “If you had more time, what would you like to do?” Her final words to me were so weak and soft that my ear had to be pressed to her lips to be able to hear, “Have more fun.” I took these words as her last wish and behaved accordingly.
Had mom read these stories, I doubt she would have given the same advice. Please know that the behaviors chronicled within are from memories of decades long past and today I am simply a quiet old painter, who loves to play in the garden.”
