There once was a land before the humans roamed. A lost sketchbook makes a long trip to find its rightful owner. A young girl waits for the note that will change her life forever. A father now serves two huge roles in his family. A couple struggles through the rough patches. Three strangers are brought together through circumstances and are forced to lean on each other. A barista and a banker’s lives barrel out of control with one trigger, and a young boy experiences the growing pains of life and fights against generational wreckage. “All that glitters is not gold” is a collection of short stories for the young and young at heart.
