With a keen eye for detail and a knack for storytelling, D'Lugo brings everyday experiences to life with vivid imagery and wry humor. In "The Day the Dog Ate My Homework," he recalls a childhood disaster with both amusement and self-deprecation. In "The Joys of Jury Duty," he finds unexpected camaraderie and laughter in the mundane world of civic service. And in "The Last Time I Saw Paris," he captures the bittersweet beauty of a city that has changed both him and the world.

D'Lugo's writing is also deeply personal, exploring his own struggles with identity, loss, and the search for meaning. In "The Color of My Skin," he reflects on the complexities of race and racism, while in "The Death of My Father," he movingly recounts the loss of his beloved parent. Through his honest and vulnerable prose, D'Lugo invites readers to reflect on their own lives and experiences.

The Ink in My Pen Died 22 Years Ago and Other Stories is a captivating and thought-provoking collection that will resonate with readers of all ages. D'Lugo's writing is a testament to the power of words to entertain, inspire, and connect us with the human experience.
