About the Book

This Side Of Center-Encore picks up where the first book in the Anthology left off. Each story asks you to take that step across the center line and view Life like it is in a fun house mirror, through wide and narrow lenses, from above and below, inside and out, in the light and sometimes in the very dark. J.A.Willoughby continues his trek through our world's emotional underbelly, opening closet doors, looking in basements, digging holes in the backyard, writing about life and death, humor and drama, coincidence and irony, religion and superstition, surprises and missed opportunities. And the last page, as in all his writing, is never The End of The Story STORY SYNOPSES: MERCY A newly evolved species instinctively protects itself and in the process infects the world's animal population - starting with humans. THE KITCHEN KLATCH An Oven, Coffee Maker, Clock and Teapot have fervid discussions, trying to cope with a recent move to a different location and with the introduction of new appliances into their small Klatch. ENCORE On a cold winter's day a former musician recalls his life on the road while waiting outside for a concert to start, then reveals the worst secrets about himself as the band starts playing. Buy for 99 cents. THERE YOU ARE! The words on a writer's computer screen literally take on a life of their own when they suddenly question him about his time spent away from the keyboard. TO ALL, A GOOD NIGHT A man down on his luck gets "uniquely acquainted" with the spirit of giving during a long out of state drive back home on Christmas Eve - just like he does every year. SEASON FINALE "The award winning time travel reality show, Death Sentence !, brings you the best in public executions throughout recorded history. This week, we are in Jerusalem for the crucifixion of Christ. You won't want to miss this season's finale!" (Sequel to A BEAUTIFUL DAY FOR AN EXECUTION, from THIS SIDE OF CENTER-ORIGINAL STORIES) THE LAST LAUGH Comedy improvisation at its finest in a surgical suite when a man tries to allay his fears about being put under general anesthesia two minutes before his scheduled surgery. A true story. WHAT OF MAN? A dying species attacks the earth's human population in a desperate plan to save themselves from extinction. SYNCHRONICITY A night on the road coming back from a gig yields a very unexpected and freaky surprise for a rock musician and his fellow band mates, one that they will never forget. (A true story) AND THEN... A young girl and her friends conjure up diabolical monsters that terrify them and threaten their lives, but only in their imaginations. Or are they? WHERE THE BOYS ARE Two boys try to solve the mystery of an old woman's obsession with a song that she plays daily, and in the process one of them discovers more than what he bargained for. SQUAWK A man suddenly awakes alone at the controls of a small airplane flying at 2,000 feet, only to discover that he can neither move nor speak.
