Joey D. Ossian 
A Marine’s Lapse in Synapse: Part Ii 
More Unbelievable, but True Short Stories

The idea for A Marines Lapse
in Synapse: Part Two came about while visiting with people about the first
book. People would ask me about it, and
say things like, Hey, did you include the part when&#8230 Id reply with an, Aw, shoot., or something
close to that, and scribble down some notes.
Since writing the first book, people have inundated me with their stories,
feeling slightly more comfortable sharing their dark side with one of their own
(almost as if my book had given them permission). Ive been asked to write their stories, and
its tempting. Someday I might, but for
now, Ive got enough of my own in my memory banks for a few more collections.
