Michael M. Brownstein writes about the small moments between people—the things left unsaid, the connections that form quietly, and the things that stay with us. He spent several years managing a bookstore café, where he watched strangers become regulars and regulars become part of a community. That experience inspired Paperbacks & Baguettes: Stories Between Us, his novella-in-flash. Michael has a habit of noticing what happens around him. He lives in Massachusetts.
