Abstract
The Ditch Between is a collection of ten short stories set mostly in the seedy fictional city of Renton, Florida. Each story showcases multi-dimensional characters and their journeys from innocence to experience, focusing on the strange details of how humans interact with one another. Most of the main characters grapple with loss, and many are left to question love, their faith, and their connection to the spiritual world. The collection as a whole seeks to examine and tear down the nature of labels often assigned to members of the working class, race, and mental illness.
