Watching for Potholes is a short story collection with a theme connecting all of the stories; the road is never as smooth as it appears. Love, laughter, romance, heartbreak, joy, and other life defining emotions are on full display in this collection. A long married couple has to decide if their marriage is over, a lifelong Cubs fan ponders if he’ll ever see them in a World Series, a bottle of ketchup exposes the lies a woman has told, and in all of the stories, surprises and potholes await.
