Two years ago, Karen had the worst conversation of her life. Her sweet little boy, Isaac, was diagnosed with Autism and Karen's life skewed sideways . She's a long way from the confident, post grad, and glowing new mom of her early twenties. Stressed, single, and mostly sober is the new norm. For Isaac's sake, she's hung on by a thread, but it's only a matter of time until it snaps. The day she loses her badly needed job, Karen meets new neighbor Jay, who expresses more than a passing interest in her. Kind, sweet, stupid hot (and he knows it), but most importantly, Jay appears to have infinite patience for both Isaac and the hot mess she's become. Karen wants more, for herself and for her son; she doesn't want to be defined by a label. With a little sarcasm, and a lot of compromise, Karen takes the frayed ends of her life and attempts to weave them together. She's not sure how, but damn, if she isn't going to try.

HE WANTED TO ESCAPE HIS PROBLEMS. HE WANTED TO SEE THE FUTURE. HE NEVER CONSIDERED WHAT THE FUTURE WANTED. Confronted with suffering a painful death from cancer, Dan Sturges, a retired Ford’s engineer, foregoes treatments to try an idea of his own. After reading a theoretical article in Scientific American on time displacement, Dan builds a time machine in his garage. With nothing to lose but a few months of pain, Dan pins his hopes on a future where cancer might have been cured, or at least a quicker death by electrocution. How could he have known that what happens after he presses the button is more shocking than the eighteen car batteries he connected himself to? Greener Grass is a science fiction short story of 5,600 words by Michael J. Sullivan, author of the fantasy books of The Riyria Revelations and the Riyria Chronicles. This short story was the seed that grew into his full-length novel, Hollow World published in April 2014 by Tachyon Publishing. While the ideas are similar, the two worlds depicted are quite different. In Greener Grass, the world was created to provide a "twilight zone" twist. In Hollow World, the future provides an environment that may be utopian or dystopic depending on the readers perceptions.

This book is a collection of numerous short stories I have created, both mini and midi ones, written in the period of the past twenty years. Some of them are award-winning entries in various micronarrative competitions. Others were adapted with the usage of audio and video stimuli thus creating something akin to hyperliterature. The book cover was done by a Wattpad user and a friend, @AWFrasier. Thank you for designing my cover (again! :)) and at such a lightning speed! Tiny Tales is ONLY available on Wattpad. If you are reading this anywhere else, it is a plagiarized version that may contain malware. ⭐⭐⭐ 📘 Featured on "Multi-Genre Anthologies" reading list on @WattpadAnthologies (June 16, 2020) 📘 Featured on "Anthologies and collections" reading list on @MicroBytes (July 14, 2019) 🥉 Microbytes Contests and Challenges - Winter Nanofiction Contest 2019 Highest rankings: #14 microfiction (June 29th, 2020)

[Completed] Anne is a shy, sensible accountant and knows that getting involved with her rich and hot billionaire boss Thierry Thorne is playing with fire, but she is irresistibly drawn to him anyway. The powerful, devastatingly handsome playboy can have any woman he wants--and now he wants Anne, much to the disapproval of his society-girl sister Theresa, who treats Anne like she isn't worthy of licking her stiletto heels. But then Anne discovers incriminating evidence that suggests the Thornes' sparkling existence isn't as perfect as it might seem. A Thorne has been killed, another one is responsible, and one is on the run... but who can Anne trust? And who is out to hurt her? Soon, Anne is fighting for her life... and Thierry and Theresa are about to find out just what their ordinary little accountant is capable of. A fast-paced thriller with mystery, action, and romance, featuring a smart, witty protagonist, the billionaire jet set, a couple abused clichés, and some surprising plot-twists. #cliche-alert ------ Cover composed using photography by sruilk and CURAphotography under license from shutterstock.com
