The Passing of Pete and Other Short Stories

Most of us have at the back of our minds or memories our Oh yes I remember whens. These are things from our past which we have long since forgotten until someone or something acts as a stimulus to bring them to our minds whether welcome or possibly even hurtful. Situations which until something or someone brings them to our mind come alive at the stimulus You remember it as a comment from a friend or even a particular sound or smell. Oh yes you say! I had totally forgotten about that but now that you mention it I remember being there and recall when so-and-so said such-and-such...How many times have we said to ourselves 'If only I had recorded and kept a diary of what happened that afternoon!' If I had done so I could have written a book on it. But so many of us haven't kept sufficient details to write our magnum opus. But we can try! Instead of trying to write a 100% accurate detail of what transpired we can include the relevant experiences in a fictional version of what happened. Yes it all happened but not strictly as described in this book.
