Hey pals! Dora here....not Dora the Explorer, but Dora McPherson. I mostly (tend to) write Short Stories. I know that in today's world, the genre of Short Stories is definitely hanging from the cliff (of literature). People prefer to read romance, or fan fiction......(but that's another story for another day!)
I would love to hear from you about which story do you prefer.
Happy Reading!

Menagerie
A collection of short stories, ranging from either only one chapter long, to only being long enough for a few chapters but not a novel. These range from stories I made recently, to ones in the past, all that I chose not to let go of despite being unable to extend the plots of each one. Why? Because to me, each one feels completed in its own way, some with a reasonable ending, others with an agreeable mystery. That and also the stories I simply couldn't let go of.

2023 Story Collection
This is my challenge to myself to get better and more consistent at writing daily. Rules I will upload a part to a story every day. Some stories will be shorter than others and some may continue over multiple days, but I will upload everyday, no matter the quality. Consistency over perfection. Important Some might be good, some might be horrible. Good thing I'm doing this for me and not for you. I'd be grateful for any feedback though, I have a lot to learn.Complete
A Big Book of Short Stories
A collection of my ideas. While most could have been cared for and nurtured until they grew into fully fledged books, they have only matured halfway, creating a efficient way to get stuck in your head. I'll also post short stories that I may or may not try turning into novels. From "The Kid is Hot Tonight," a story about such topics as high school parties and domestic abuse. To "Just Another Nightmare," a story about a kind of hell you might never have thought of. This collection will likely make you question if something is wrong with me. Spoiler alert; there is. It will also show you the farthest reaches of the world and the furthest horrors that I can write about. If you want an update on how the next story is coming along, you can ask me however you want. Seriously I'm so so lonely...
