A collection of very short, funny stories with unpredictable endings. Dedicated to all those who watched someone suffer with cancer or any serious illness. It’s a picture of life as viewed by a rich array of characters, talking animals, and the author’s twisted perception of reality. Rated PG13 for minor drug references, cartoon violence, bad puns, and anti-humor. Contains a wealth of hidden trivia.

Richard Bell presents us here with his multi-layered series of short stories and little tips to make our lives more interesting. Follow the journeys of Spud, the evil potato, the author and his misadventures with aluminum foil, a porcupine named Timmy who comes to think he’s a doctor, and young brothers Scooter and Biff, to name just a few who live in this hilarious world.

Many of the stories come from Bell’s magazine column entitled Modern Fables published in Wassup Local Magazine (Lake County, IL). He originally started writing in 2004 when he was laid off from his job shortly after his wife got leukemia, and this was his therapy. Author is donating a portion of his proceeds from book sales to cancer research.

byTicToc: A group of short stories, somewhat in the style of an anthology, Life Seemed Good But ... by Richard Bell is a funny and compelling compilation of stories sure to get you laughing. Reading the first few stories, I was not sure what I thought but as I continued on my journey, I began to see the ties that seemed to connect this set of stories and make it into hilarious continuing work of comedy.

While many of the characters seem to be written with children in mind, the story is not; often they deal with drugs and other formats not particularly suitable for children. Although from the laughter I myself experienced, maybe there is a reason to have characters a child would be attracted to, they certainly held my attention.

If you enjoy humor and better yet, outright laughter, this is an extremely fun and engaging work.
