This blog features short fiction about the life of a family through three generations.

The bulk of the stories are about Carrie (the mother) and Jon (the father), their children Emma and Michael and events that took place for them in the mid-2010s in Yuma in the U.S. South-West.

There are also a smattering of stories about many other family members and friends, though. You can see a complete list of characters here.

I also have other stories taking place in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s and 2000s and it is my plan to go all the way up to the 2060s!

Here is an index of all stories and a reading guide.

Finally, if you want to know more about how all this began, and where it might be going, check out the FAQ.

Should you have any questions feel free to drop a comment or write to chris AT shadeofthemorningsun DOT com.

Lastly, if you have ideas for a story—perhaps based on something you have experienced yourself, you are also very welcome to reach out.

All the best,

– Chris
