is all
we know
In this second collection of short stories, Ettles offers a version of the Canadian landscape against which eccentric tales and colourful characters evoke ever-shifting perspectives of what we see and who we are. A modern working woman of 1983 looks to escape her version of nuclear family hell. A lonely vampire seeks companionship. A dysfunctional family harbours a white-collar criminal on the run. These and other narratives explore nuanced societal spaces of money, youth, food and fame, city and country, sexual orientation, gender identity, and expression. Throughout the forging of identity, for ourselves and for those around us, is each ephemeral, sublime, surreal (so real) moment – this is all we know.

What May Comes of Our
DARKNESS
a series of short stories
That time a widowed father and his son went to a party by accident. // That time Amy met someone. // That time the twins got more than they bargained from their super successful microbrewery. // That time Drew grew up suddenly within the walls of a psychiatric hospital. // That time lines were drawn in the sand among a family of vampires. // That time Kait fell forward in a Jesus Christ pose.
What May Come of Our Darkness is exactly that: the possibilities that follow the various moments of our lives, however defining or mundane, and all degrees in between.
