Death Not Do Us Part: A Craft Essay by Mark Tulin

A craft essay about my short story, Jamie and Matt. Abraxas Review, Issue 2.

"We take many things for granted when we are young. We haven't the slightest clue that we will lose many of them one day. We don't want to believe that we will be unable to work anymore or take care of ourselves. Our minds may still desire to be productive, but our bodies won't cooperate. It's an inner conflict that older people need to resolve to make their later years less stressful."

I am an author, poet, humorist, and short story writer living in Long Beach, California. I write about various topics, from my early childhood in Philadelphia to my years as a family therapist and finally to my soul-searching in California. These are poetic narratives that may have humorous or serious content or both. Either way, I hope my poetry and stories resonate with you. My books include Magical Yogis, Uncommon Love Stories, Awkward Grace, Junkyard Souls, and Rain on Cabrillo.
