Kenton Lewis has just released his first collection of short stories, My Stories My People. They are available in the Kindle e-book format from Amazon.com.
My People My Stories is a collection of short stories about ordinary people written by Lewis over the past few years. Some stories were published in literary journals and others on his website.
Most of the short stories are 1,000 words or less, designed to be read in five minutes or so. Some that are longer have been broken down into five minute reading episodes.

Like all good writers, you know how to arrest attention and make the telepathy possible to transport the reader into the story.
Your book “The Summer of ’62″ reminds me of the unforgettable song “The Summer Knows” by Michel Legrand from the movie “Summer of ’42″ of 1971.
I saw the movie, but the similarity of 42 and 62 are coincidental.
