Dive Tales

Slip below the surface and head down with Dive Tales: Recollections of a Washed-Up Diver. This book is a unique compilation of short stories and a four-part novella set against the backdrops of the Gulf of Mexico, the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, Florida freshwater springs, and beautiful Lake Wallenpaupack in Northeastern Pennsylvania. In Part I: Nonfiction, experience encounters with the fearsome stone crab, match wits with a clever Florida lobster, and unlock the hidden secret in "Cobalt Blue, Golden Mezcal, and the Secret of the Worm." In Part II: Fiction, battle a grotesque subterranean monster in the basement of a Fort Lauderdale dive shop. Then, shift gears with "The Jetty," a bittersweet coming-of-age story set in the heart of the Pocono Mountains. At the conclusion of Dive Tales, hitch a ride to an imaginary dive world accompanied by two hammerhead sharks bound for purgatory at the bottom of a sink hole in the Gulf of Mexico. Every dive contains an element of risk. So, grab your gear bag, take a chance, and see what you will find in Dive Tales: Recollections of a Washed-Up Diver.
