Brian Wilson 
Moments in Time 
A Collection of Short Stories

Thirty entertaining and mostly humorous short stories comprising life experiences in which we can all relate. It reminds us that every day in our life is a unique experience and will not always be a bunch of roses. As you will find in this book there will be stories of good times, and times to laugh about. On other occasions there will be earthquakes in our lifebut also hope. The writer draws on experiences in New Zealand, Zambia, Thailand, England, Scotland, Switzerland, and Australia to write entertaining stories often with a surprise twist. He captures the dramatic moments in September and February when Christchurch, New Zealand was rocked by two large earthquakes. The author was nearby a six-storey building which collapsed entombing 113 occupants.

‘An avid short story reader, I thought these were brilliant and must be published. The stories are not only told by Brian but are Brian, reflecting his witty sometime subtle sense of humour and play on words. They are naturally thought provoking.’

About the author

AUTHORS BIOGRAPHY
As a long-time friend of Brian and his wife Karen, I felt privilege when asked to write this Author’s Biography. Our friendship extends back to primary school days and over the years that followed when we have enjoyed tramping (hiking) in the beautiful South Island bush of New Zealand. I’m glad that as you read this book of Brian’s, you will share in the delight of wit and emotion—of people in situations in which you might see yourself and also feel the emotion and humour.

Brian is a caring person and on one occasion he spent 6 weeks in voluntary service at a missionary hospital on the edge of the Kalahari Desert. He also likes to encourage others to step out of their comfort zone. After he completed a Masters Degree in Psychology, I was motivated to complete a Masters degree in Professional Studies. Brian has accounting and management qualifications as well.

As a family man who loves music and sport, he has enjoyed seeing his wife and 3 adult children develop a similar passion.

Brian loves to blend in and to be known as an average Kiwi bloke. He writes his stories with the hope the reader will get enjoyment and inspiration. I know that you will.
