Publisher's Synopsis

Short Stories mostly take a backseat when it comes to readers. Even authors don't seem to have a high regard for them. They are sort of hidden, like little gems of creativity, that many authors are almost ashamed of.

But why? Not every plotline can be stretched into a full-length novel. Short stories are an art form of their own. They need our respect, be brought forth and polished up like little diamonds. They are hidden gems! I took the opportunity to collect some of my best little gems into one book, John's Hidden Gems.

These little, short stories are for perfect reading when there is little time, maybe waiting for a bus, a train or a plane. Maybe, to bide away the time on a lonely canoe trip. Or if one wakes up under the sun at a crowded beach. What better way to drown out the ambient noise than to sink oneself into the depths of reading an imaginative short story?
John's Hidden Gems look at the life of a failure, seeking a second chance at Teen Challenge. They look at a successful violinist who ponders the meaning of life while he is being murdered. They also look into the afterlife of musicians and painters clamoring to get past St. Peter's Pearly Gates. Short Stories can investigate the burning questions of justice and injustice in this world of ours. Also, the question of where do good Atheists go in the afterlife, if there is one?

Short Stories can be used to plug in the gaps in your life when you are squeezed for time. They leave a kernel of truth in your soul which touch on the big questions about life and why we are here. Take a journey into John's Hidden Gems, whenever you have a little time to read and think. Even little stories can hold big ideas.
