The Long Year collects 12 short stories including: This Won't Last, North Port, Weightless, Speck of Dust, Bird Lungs, Sand Particles, Oculus, The Last Outpost, The Hunter's Moon, To Become Day, It's All Relative, and Paper Cranes. The stories in the book range from short Sci-fi stories to longer stories dealing with mortality. Each story is a nugget of a thought with a touch of my off-beat story telling style.
