Mark Turner is a visual artist, filmmaker, writer and artistic leader. He has produced and taught in five major regions of the globe as the director of Horizon Gate Productions, a non-profit arts organization which he co-founded with his wife in 1981. His emphasis has been in multi-media to tell stories and produce contemplative experiences using his visuals, poetry and soundtracks. He is currently creating tangible and digital art of inspirational and metaphorical images which he then re-purposes as motion graphics films with rich sound tracks of his poetry, sound effects and music. All this is exhibited together in a conversational atmosphere called the Film Gallery Cafe which can be booked in many venues.
These eleven short stories help you contemplate wisdom of the ages in modern language and settings. Some are published here for the first time and others are compiled from books already offered individually. Originally presented as stage plays, Mark has adapted them for reading in the way he would direct them on stage. This lends them easily to reading aloud and links are provided to some of the scripts for groups to read aloud together. Some are full of funny characters and witty dialogue. Others show the pathos of life and death, the passage of time and the struggles to relate with one another. All the stories entertain and lead in thinking about life in the metropolis, the forest, the small town and on the farm. Timeless ideas connect you with ancestors, ancient history and the mystery beyond the grave. Themes include death, generosity, Love, family, growing up, healing, community, making art, faith, terrorism, and the meaning of Christmas.
