Online Short Stories to Inform, Entertain and Inspire

Amusing stories, poignant stories, illustrated stories, true stories.

Welcome to Mixed Numbers — Recollections gleaned from over three decades of pushing chalk across a blackboard. Some stories are accompanied by an illustration that contains errors for the reader to spot.

My website features other writing ventures, including my children’s books, The Blake E Mysteries.
