Year My Tears Failed eBook

Five short stories and five poems from internationally published author Alex Burrett.For Alex Burrett, 2015 was both literally and metaphorically, "The year my tears failed". Literally - in that he was diagnosed with a medical condition that is treated with artificial tears. His own tears are incapable of properly lubricating his eyeballs. Metaphorically - in that the literary shrieks of pain this collection fell on deaf ears. Each was entered into a completion. Not one won. Or was shortlisted.Is this the worst introduction to a year's work ever written? Burrett hopes so. Because that will mean he has won a prize… of sorts. Anyway. He's proud of these short stories and poems. They explore big ideas. This collection is ideal for someone who likes big picture thinking. And words.
