In the literary fiction Gutterweeds, Tommy Jackson is the typical outsider who believes he is a failure at everything - sports, popularity, finding a girlfriend - while his younger brother Johnny handles adolescent trials with a certain grace. As they grow up, Tommy continually tries to fit in and develops self-destructive behaviors that could be to blame for what eventually happens to his brother. In a battle to prove himself, Tommy forgets what really matters until it is too late. Gutterweeds explores the phases and sensitivity experienced on that journey before adulthood as well as the friendship between two brothers. Through the memories of the main character, the troubled misfit actively recalls his intentions with humor, sincerity, and cynicism.
