Quit Honking! (I'm Pedaling as Fast as I Can)

Quit Honking! is a collection of quirky, whimsical short stories and essays. Carrying on where his first book, Small Portions Cafe, left off, Douglas Fergus shares his hilarious outlook on the follies and foibles of our time on planet Earth. You'll see a little bit of yourself in these refreshing, playful views of circumstances that make up everyday life.

Come along for the ride as Douglas holds an absurdist magnifying glass up to each one of us and asks: Are you running with the bulls or getting run over by the bulls? With the ever-growing pressure to keep up with society's beautiful, successful people, reading this book may give you the courage to yell out, "Quit honking! I'm pedaling as fast as I can!"

You'll meet these and other memorable characters:

• What happened when Saint Peter retired as heaven's gatekeeper and his daughter Petra took over?
• Scam artists: Born to cheat? Or legitimate career choice?
• He avoided the kooky woman with a cookie addiction until true love intervened.
• They were on their way to stardom, but the restaurant industry had other plans.
• To poison your family and friends or not ...That is the question.
• She was funnier than the perfidious comedian but fell for him anyway.
