Hello readers! This will be the site of a serialized novella by Matt Bloom. We hope that you will join us every Monday and Thursday, starting March 3rd, to read more of the story as it unfolds. The following is a preview of what you can expect from Striking Out:
Cast of Characters
Patrick - He has a baby on the way but is scared to death of the responsibility of being a father, especially considering the difficulty he has had with just being a faithful husband.
April - She has been married to Patrick for two years, working as a waitress to help pay the bills. Strong-willed as she is, this is not the kind of woman to take competition lightly.
Susan - Beautiful, charming, intelligent . . . just incredibly unlucky with men. Patrick, for instance, may be everything she's looking for in a guy, with the exception of that pesky ring.
Wendell - Patrick's quirky, cosmic-bowling-loving best friend is searching for the perfect girl, and just may have found her in Susan. He may be the right choice for her, too - nevermind that he still lives in his parents' basement.
Eric - Patrick and April's baby boy is on the way, but what condition will his parents be in when he arrives?
