Book Blurb:

The poems, story, and thoughts included in this brief volume were inspired by the independently produced album Wayward and Upward by Spinoza Gambit. The story Prodigal Moon and the poem 401 Rush were included in the Wayward and Upward anthology published by Off Topic Press.

I opted to publish this book on my 59th birthday. It would be a wonderful gift to learn that my work inspired you or led you to learn more about the Wayward and Upward album and anthology.

With love,

Ornery Owl

Author Bio

Ornery Owl is a wise old bird who seeks the truth behind the lies. She uses her observations to heal the wounded soul. In essence, she is the spirit of an odd little bird whose wings were clipped at a young age. She is at once a whimsical manifestation of poetic expression and a fierce protector of those targeted for derision by an angry and unsympathetic world. Depending on how you perceive her, she can be either a goddamned delight or your worst nightmare.

Ornery Explanations

Sometimes I promote the same thing on more than one blog hop because my puny brain gets overwhelmed and then I become emotionally dysregulated. I hope you can understand my position.

It makes sense to promote this story on these three blog hops. It fits the Rainbow Snippets theme because there are gay characters who play significant roles. Neither Snippet Sunday nor Weekend Writing Warriors have genre restrictions, although most authors who participate in Snippet Sunday are romance writers. The main relationship in this story is a platonic friendship, but I would say it qualifies as a love story anyway.
