Weekend Write-In Story Collection
This Wattpad Anthology Winner is a collection of fifty-two of the short stories I've written for the Weekend Write-In challenges. Each story is exactly five hundred words long, except for two which specified one thousand words. From the beginning, I have taken the challenge further by using interpretations of the prompt that differ, sometimes dramatically, from those that usually come to mind.Complete
Nothing to See Here
These are short stories, flash and microfictions, most less than 500 words, the longest about 1500 words. Short, funny, and sometimes fun. Sometimes pointed and sometimes pointless. These stories have been described as eclectic, quirky, and sometimes sad. Take a handful to go.Complete
OCR is Not the Only Font
Silly, surreal and sometimes serious, these thirty-one very short stories cover a vast range of subjects and themes. Written entirely during July 2012, these flash fiction pieces are accompanied by a deeply unscientific analysis of the challenge that spawned them: to write thirty-one stories in thirty-one days. From lovesick androids to disgruntled minotaurs, the stories in this book embrace Classical mythology, futuristic sci-fi, and a variety of other genres that would much rather have stayed out of the way. Within these electronic pages, you will find disgraced superheroes, unionised zombies, steam-powered clowns and incompetent astronauts. Includes a non-fiction section analysing the results of this month-long experiment.Complete
