Publisher's summary

The life of actor, choreographer, and musician Columbus Short has been punctuated with trauma that extends well beyond the plot lines of his previous role on the hit series Scandal. Short has lived many lives packed into one - from a family filled with turmoil to tumultuous love affairs and enough scandals of his own. But somewhere in the middle, Short’s realization that there has to be a better way comes into full view.

Short Stories not only details Columbus Short’s journey from childhood to Hollywood, it shows how even the most checkered of pasts can create a different person with the right amount of will and drive, especially when it comes to fulfilling your true destiny.

Intriguing

It continues to amaze me, the backstory that is the journey of each person’s life. Columbus’s backstory is of struggle, tenacity and faith. I love the confidence he has in himself, to others it may come off as arrogance, but it is that confidence and faith that continues to guide him in taking that next step after each struggle. A lesser man may have given up. There were a few audio challenges during the performance but, I enjoyed his stories.

Thank you!

This book was an amazing glimpse into Mr. Shorts life. I appreciate the back story and clarifying the one sided headlines the public was privy to.
I love how he takes accountability for his actions and I wish the best and success for Mr Short and his family.
