"Kaizen" is a Japanese term that refers to on-going or continuous improvement. Typically applied to business practices, author Brandon Everett applies this philosophy to writing, suggesting that with anything in life, one can continuously and gradually improve. To illustrate this concept, he has curated several short stories, flash fiction pieces, and poetry that span the breadth of his career, pieces that improve in quality, illustrating that gradual improvement is totally accessible. -- "Baxter is coming home, angry with his father...but a sudden accident makes him come to grips with his feelings...and a deep-kept secret..." -- "Sid is woken from a drunken sleep by his neighbor Todd, who is desperate to have Sid fix the stairs in his house...and to see the mysterious purple glow that appears at the top of the stairs from time to time..." -- "Roland Bachman has been on the case of the Rabbit Killer for months with no leads and no direction...until a mysterious suspect found at the scene of a murder claims to know Roland and will only speak with Roland...a man with tusks...and a haunting message..." -- "Hannah is shocked when a man is found hanging from a tree not far from where she is sitting in the park...but a little boy knows something about it...a boy only she seems to see..."
