Expansive Thoughts offers a diverse collection of poetry, prose, and short stories. Featuring the work of three accomplished authors, this anthology examines a plethora of thematic threads. These are just some of the expansive thoughts presented herein: In "Pure Shores," Angel Moon presents a complex dichotomy: a modest secretary and a hedonistic pop star. Little do these two souls know that fate has placed them on convergent paths. In "Silent Pain," Snow Moon paints an emotionally compelling portrait of a young woman tormented by both loneliness and cryptic dreams. As her nocturnal visions gradually unfold, they guide her back to a past love that is not what he appears to be. And, Phillip Collins offers "Of Angelic Blood," the story of an eccentric and insecure college student who falls in love with an angel . . . a literal angel! When he discovers the ethereal nature of his love, what began as a conventional romance becomes a spiritual journey. Eclectic, evocative, and thought-provoking, this collection is an invitation for readers to open their hearts and minds to some truly Expansive Thoughts.
