The stories in this volume are in three sections. 'Retirement Stories' are about senior citizens, such as a retiree prompted by a college survey to examine his past ('Mr. Maple’s Good Life'), a retiree prompted to think about human connections after a chance meeting with 'The Lady from Australia' and a retiree who sees a chance for revenge when the ex-boss who fired him moves next door ('New Neighbors').'Left-Over Stories' are those I couldn’t fit into Volume I. These include a story telling you how to make 'Money', worth the price of the book alone, and a trilogy continuing the story of the young man in 'Being in Love' with 'Getting Married' and 'Struggling On' in the early married years.The third section has stories written just for fun, which I hope, will be fun to read. There’s a ghost story, a vampire story, a love potion story, a magic ring story and more. In the last story, 'Unfinished Business', a writer tries to outwit death.
