Triple Vision: A Collection of Stories and Poems from The Writing Journey
We often view life, just as we read and write fiction, through one of three lenses — Reality, Speculation, Fantasy.
In Triple Vision, the writers of The Writing Journey open these three lenses wide with a riveting collection of short stories and poems that entice the reader to interact close-up with an engaging cast of characters in a wide array of fanciful tales and moving verse.
The lens of Realism transforms scenes from real life to ride the pulsating beats that drive our world today. These stories and poems create meaning from what is, with its conflicts, strivings, losses, loves, highs and lows.
The lens of Speculation extrapolates from the realm of the future or what could be to create Science Fiction and Horror stories. The action scenes escalate beat by beat to bring the reader to new heights of anticipation.
The lens of Fantasy goes beyond what is or what might be to explore our most profound connections to the unknown. The dreamlike depictions in this group of stories and poems carry us to our deepest wellsprings of meaning.
Activate your curiosity and satisfy your imagination as you enjoy these sometimes startling stories and poems of Triple Vision offered here by The Writing Journey of Naperville and beyond.
Trigger warning: there is one story in this collection about child sexual abuse.

I originally heard about this book because my mom wrote one of the stories. After I read her amazing story (which I hope she continues at some point as I’d love to know more), I decided to read the other pieces as well. I really enjoyed all of the different stories in here and the layout: Reality, Darkness and Fantasy. I love that each story or poem is fairly short so it’s great to just read a bit when you don’t have much time. I also like that you can pick which genre’s you’re most interested in. But it’s also great to read one piece after another. They’re really good and I definitely recommend!
