The Bench

by Michael Krozer

These joyful, inspiring, and spiritual short stories all have the common bench as their foundation, a place of refuge on the journey of life. Mystically and spiritually, the bench is associated with contemplation, learning to find a deeper meaning in one’s existence, and the promise that you’ll make a trusted friend and share insights into life’s challenges.

When you see someone sitting on a bench, they might be waiting for you.

About the author

Writing and filmmaking capture the imagination. There is always a story to document if one has the patience to recognize it. I imbue my characters with multilayered motivations that are revealed through their interactions.


I find that the greatest challenge is to portray the complexity of life just as it is. When fans ask how I come up with the challenges confounding my characters, I reply, “From travel. From interacting with people. From following world events. From blending in what-if spins.” For me, the joy of crafting a world is to let it evolve through my characters. I don’t know what will happen until it does, right on the page.

I am a filmmaker and writer with multiple completed works and ongoing projects in the thriller, espionage and speculative space.
