Things That Happened Adjacent To Reality
Somewhere just to the side of everyday life, strange little things are happening.
A ghost tries very hard to be helpful.
A robot misunderstands comedy.
A dog writes a letter he means with his whole heart.
A time traveler is always a few minutes too late.
These short stories live in the space between sense and nonsense, where nothing is especially useful but everything is quietly absurd. Things That Happened Adjacent to Reality is a collection of whimsical, tender, and slightly off-kilter tales about connection, misunderstanding, and trying your best— even when you’re a ghost, a robot, or something just as confused.
There are no lessons here, no instructions, and no guarantees. Just a handful of stories that wandered in from somewhere nearby and decided to stay.

What happens when an eleven-year-old girl is put in charge of the biggest event in town?
Wren Harbury loves puzzles, lists, and solving problems. So when Mrs. Henny Wright announces that she can no longer organize the beloved Marcomville Market, Wren thinks she knows exactly what to do.
She volunteers.
But running a town-wide market is harder than Wren imagined. There are vendors to recruit, money to manage, booths to organize, permits to get, and plenty of unexpected problems along the way. And then there’s Brad Lannon, who thinks an eleven-year-old has no business running anything.
As the big day gets closer, Wren begins to wonder if Brad is right. Can she prove that being young doesn’t mean she isn’t capable? And when the future of the Marcomville Market is suddenly at stake, will Wren have what it takes to save the day?
A story about courage, community, creativity, and discovering that sometimes the biggest problems can be solved by the person everyone least expects.
