GOOD STORIES

1 Long Island memories

Growing up by the water. The people, places and moments that made me.

2 Key West mischief

Sun, salt, characters and a healthy disrespect for the rules.

3 Kaspar & the open road

My co-pilot, my compass and the miles that keep us honest.

The long way here

There is a life behind every page.

G.J. is a career military veteran, a Johns Hopkins writing graduate, and a former professor of Writing and Literature. He has lived in a Key West marina, travelled with a vintage VW, and returned again and again to the beaches that first taught him to pay attention.

Blue Sea Glass gathers those finds: poems, prose, memoir, mischief, longing, laughter, and the odd piece of hard-won wisdom.
