Welcome to my site and to my writing section—it’s good to have you here!  Below are five selections that I think you’ll enjoy.  I hope you’ll find them unusual, and that they’ll give you some new ways of thinking about things.

 

 

 

 

Novel Excerpt:  THE SURPRISE ENDING

 

This is my first novel, a short one.  Andy Behrman, author of Electroboy, said:  “Kyler James reveals his metropolitan world—with an intimacy and power few of us would otherwise be privileged to share.  This sensitively written and fast-paced tale will lure you in for an exciting ride.”  And singer Nicole Renaud said:  “Bravo!  Kyler James has a real talent as a writer.  He’s a great storyteller—and the world needs good storytellers.  THE SURPRISE ENDING is unique.  It reconciled me with reading.”  To read the first chapter, click here.

 

 

 

 

 

Short Story:  “The Conscious Egoist”

 

Here’s my first published piece of fiction.  When the editors of Literary Vision Magazine accepted it, they said it was the funniest story they’d seen in a long time.  To read it in on their site, click here.

 

 

 

 

 

True Story:  “My First Friend”

 

This is a short piece of narrative nonfiction.  But the editors put a disclaimer on it, calling it fiction, so you decide (it’s not hard to figure out).  To see my true life revealed, click here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Novel Excerpt:  THE VOICES OF CHILDREN

 

My latest novel tells the story of a young man’s quest for enlightenment through the path of his own insanity.  But it also tells the story of a love triangle involving himself, Micky, his sensitive sister, Viagra (who changes her name to Violet), and a hot truck driver, Dave.  What happens to them is shocking, but do you think I’m going to give it away?  Here’s a taste of it with Chapter Eight from the viewpoint of Micky’s black Camaro, Raven.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Short Story:  “The Loneliest Man on Earth”

 

This is my latest story.  When it was posted on Gather.com, it had the highest rating on the site for a few weeks.  Ivan Webster, author of The Cares of the Day, said:  “Well done.  Crisp dialogue.  The story has a rhythm, a lilt, that carries it along.  It’s a fizzy blend of danger and hope, just like life in New York.”  And Andy Behrman said:  “He has a unique voice.  I’ve never read anything even close to this character.  Bravo!”  To see it yourself, click here—and thanks for reading.
