Brian

I'm a 60 year old Canadian, living in Doha, Qatar. Much of my writing reflects my personal experiences and could be considered creative non-fiction. Another segment is more fantasy, containing mysteries or twists, often unexplained. I have accumulated a small inventory of stories, many of which are contained herein. Feel free to visit and make comments. I would be happy to review your work if you request. I don't know much about poetry.
