With minis., the author of forever ago. unleashes a provocative new collection of short stories, flash fiction, reflections, and verse on an unsuspecting public. By spinning tales about:
a predatory schoolgirl, a narcissistic himbo, a desperate guncle, a stalker and his object of obsession, a fateful joyride in a vintage Barracuda, a marriage made in heaven that goes to hell, abject affairs with drug dealers,
...and more, Raymond G. Neal shines unforgiving and humorous light on sides of queer life in America that we aren't accustomed to seeing-sides that are sweaty, often messy, and distinctly unfiltered; sides we're taught not to discuss publicly and are told to pretend don't exist.
Written with shrewd insight, wicked humor, and gloriously unfiltered candor, minis. redraws the boundaries between fact and fiction to create a narrative about growing up and living life queer, working class, and dysfunctional in America.
CONTENT/TRIGGER WARNING: This collection has not been distilled for heterosexual consumption or approval.It contains frank depictions of bullying, queer sex, illicit drug use, sexual assault, and a bad hair day.READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED!
"Not all teachers are role models. Many lead fractured, disjointed lives that don't make much sense to anyone, least of all themselves. But if knowledge equals power, learning how not to do some things can be as valuable as learning how to do other things just right. Hopefully, it all shakes out in the end."
