My Life in Shorts
After telling someone about one of my life’s experiences, their response has been “you should write a book!”. This has happened probably more than 100 times. I’ve always actually had a dream and a goal of writing a book. There isn’t one. Instead, I give you my life in shorts.
The goal of My Life in Shorts is to write about life experiences that can connect people. I hope to connect to you through what I’ve experienced, what I felt, what I remember, what I said, what was said to me and times of joy and struggle. I write about relationships, adventures, and the smallest of interactions that have left an imprint on who I am.
I write about everything from being adopted, getting fired from 3 jobs, married & divorced to surviving Covid with my parents, and surviving my own suicide attempt. I post about connecting through day-to-day happenings. You may be able to relate to the time I swallowed a bug on a bike ride or went into a grocery store to get milk, fruit and veggies (adhere to my healthy diet) and left with all that plus 4 items from the bakery because they were on sale. Or how about the time your computer had to do an update at the same time as your zoom meeting?
Some of the short stories are just that, short, while others I admit are a bit longer. The videos I record are not professional and are most often recorded spontaneously in the moment. You’ll see in some of my pictures I try to be a creative professional photographer. This often leads to frequent failures that are still used because I love taking pictures.
“My Life in Shorts is about connection through life experiences and finding similarities in what it means to be human, even when you think you are the only one who wears Depends when car camping.”

My Creative Ways to Connect
-
To make the most of all the great videos I have to share, there will soon be links to the social accounts that can handle them better than the limits of a webpage.
-
Soon there will be a link where you can read some of my best short stories.
-
Thoughts that pop into my head and maybe yours too. Wait for the link.

Stay connected to see me in shorts.

What’s This All About?
My Mom told me to do it.
It is because of my mom’s relentless reminder that I should write a book and the tough times, and not so tough times, I’ve had in my life that led to Carvo Chronicles. It is much more than a book. There are stories that may have started in the past and continue to the present. Experiences when I thought I was the only one then to find I was not alone with this life experience. You could say Carvo Chronicles is a living document where life happens
