Kurt has always had crazy ideas about stories to write that differ from the normal happy ending. He wants to show people that there is more to stroytelling than that. Failures, dead ends, and worst outcomes can provide valuable insights which, in turn, can help us deal with said situations down the road. Kurt hopes you read his work with an open mind.
