Everyday Folks

About the Book

Who are we? We are hardworking and focused. We are winners or defeaters. We fall in and out of love. Some of us own nice cars while others take the bus. We are immensely rich or exceedingly broke. We're not in tabloids or on covers of magazines. "We're common, Everyday Folks."

Everyday Folks: Short Stories on the Common People takes a glimpse into the lives of people whose life stories would probably go unnoticed. The short stories warm our hearts or challenge our nerves. They chronicle the realities and complexities that many of us face on a day-to-day basis. Set in Miami, Florida, Everyday Folks gives the rest of the world a chance to see beneath the fleshy surface of people who build their lives around love, pain, and the inevitable.

This book is dedicated to you not to many but a small few for the things you do in lieu of what you do

For it is derived from the essence of you.

It captures the heart with episodes that only the common people will understand.
