Short Stories of human interest and fiction

Short Stories Collection

    Some of these stories were written by me. Others are stories I have collected over the years from different sources. The author of some of them are unknown. If I know who the author is credit is given.

    My name is Mick Lindley. I am 56 years old married to Debbie Weathers Lindley. We have 2 daughters and five grandchildren. When I was 1 year old my Dad worked at a sawmill in Winston county, AL. Figuring there had to be something better my parents put everything they owned in the back of an old borrowed truck. They left Winston County, Alabama in 1951 and moved to Birmingham, Alabama. I have been here ever since.
