Some of the stores are about :
  • A passionate December love affair.
  • The meeting of an unexpected traveler.
  • The consequences of protecting a young new acquaintance.
  • A journey into an unknown past.
The collection is well written, interesting and descriptive, immediately drawing you into each individual story.  The stories are deep, moving and emotional.  The characters are well developed and the places described so you can easily imagine how they look. 

Probably my only critisism, was that just as I was getting into the story, it suddenly ended and left me wanting each one to develop into more, wondering what would happen to the characters and how the story would pan out. 

I also love Jeremy's dedication at the start of the book to his wife and children.  Simple but beautiful.

Jeremy Lane lives in North Texas with his wife and three children.  His first collection of short stories, entitled “Here and Gone”, was published in 2010 by Ether Books, a digital publisher located in the UK.
“While I’m Still Myself” is published in paperback by Tate Publishing early in 2012.


His work has also been featured in many literary sites and journals, including MUSCADINE LINES: A SOUTHERN JOURNAL.
