Review & Description
"Four Scoops" Is Over The Top is a collection of 36 original, entertaining short stories and poems. It's the third in the "Scoops" series and combines the best elements of its forerunners, "Two Scoops" Is Just Right and "Three Scoops" Is A Blast! These tales, which deal with relationships and all of the quirks and oddities that bind humanity together, skip around in time and location and even verge into elements of fantasy and make-believe.
Sometimes serious but more often light-hearted and almost always insightful, these pieces are sure to entertain and surprise readers. Skillfully crafted and mainly written to be fun for readers, they can also bring a tear to the eye when the narrative warrants.
Mr. Carrick is a critically-acclaimed author whose story "The Size of the Skip" - found in "Three Scoops" Is A Blast! - was short-listed for the 2010 Lorian Hemingway Short Story Award. In 2011, he received another Honorable Mention in the world-renowned Hemingway competition for "Caboose Follies", which appears in "Four Scoops" Is Over The Top. Read more
