Salamangka: 12SS 2020
Contained here are my submissions to complete the 12 Short Stories in 12 Months Challenge over at Deadlines For Writers (deadlinesforwriters.com). They generally fall under the urban fantasy genre and are shared here, as-is, without any editing, for posterity -- warts and all! This was my first year participating, and the first time I've ever written consistently and seriously over an extended period of time, so pardon the newbie mistakes. That said, I am grateful to Deadlines for Writers and its community, but most especially to Mia Botha, the site's creator and owner! I learned a lot over the past year, and look forward to applying those to all my further writing! Without further ado, here are my 12 Short Stories for 2020. Enjoy!Complete

A Breath of Ecstasy: Short Stories, Flash Fiction, and Other Goodies
Experience heart-pounding romance and suspense, odds-defying adventure, and deep emotion, all in the space of a few minutes with these short stories ranging from 300 - 2000 words. Including: THE DAY THE HUMA BIRD TOUCHED HER SHADOW: The Huma bird is an ancient mythological creature from Persia. Legend has it that the Huma contains both male and female halves, and that wherever its shadow falls it brings great joy and peace. But what happens when the world stops believing in the Huma? When half of it is torn away? When she remains alone--and one day falls to Earth, a human? THE DEEP LILAC SEA: Former Lieutenant Commander Lira Stavros served faithfully in the Queensguard--until the day she didn't. Now she's disgraced, demoted, and floating in the middle of a supposedly dead alien ocean for some much-needed rest time. But when a scientifically impossible storm rises, things get deadly fast. LOVE ON THE PLANET PEGGY: Aminah is a lonely government office worker stationed on Peggy. On a whim, she signs up for a pairing service that promises to find your "One True Match." Hers isn't in the system - until radiation hits the web and "OTMs" are popping up everywhere. Corim seems perfect, but when he and Aminah finally meet, a surprise is in store. BREAK OF DAY: As the spring equinox swings into being and the sun crests the horizon, two young women, separated by 2000 years and a vast cultural gulf, are drawn to the same stone circle in England. As the mist rises, boundaries blur and the lines between adult and child, ancient and modern, hope and despair, become muddied. Uncapitalized titles are 300 word one shots, and the title is the prompt that came from TypeTrigger.com. Capitalized entries are either my own imagination entirely or contest entries :)Complete
