Short Stories

This collection of short stories wanders through the strange, hilarious, and unexpectedly tender corners of a life held together by caffeine, chaos, and stubborn hope. From mornings that unravel faster than a cheap sweater to barrooms where women like June bend gravity just by walking in, these stories blend mythic‑surreal humor with emotional grit and the kind of honesty that stings in the best way.You'll meet Prince Albert, a tiny royal kitten who adopts an anteater named Roy against his will. You'll witness journals that talk back, walls with better boundaries than their owners, and the universe itself behaving like a drunk raccoon with abandonment issues. Every story is its own little universe — weird, warm, sharp, and deeply human.Sammie writes like life is a cosmic joke and she's the punchline, but somehow she makes the joke land every time. These stories are for anyone who's ever tried to have a normal morning and failed spectacularly, for anyone who's ever loved something small and stubborn, and for anyone who knows survival sometimes looks like showing up sideways.Chaotic, heartfelt, and unhinged in all the right ways — this book is a reminder that even the messiest moments can shine.
