Anthology of flash fiction based on a 100 prompts challenge with each story being 500 words or less.

ISBN :  978-976-656-428-5

Written in response to a 100 Stories Challenge, UNDER THE MANGO TREE: 101 TALES is a collection of short stories.  They range impressively from tributes to fathers to Caribbean Mythology to life on other planets to Vampires and Christmas. 

Yet somehow the Saint Lucian and at times Caribbean links run insistently through the stories.  For example, it helps to know that the 758 number that manifests in so many sneaky ways, is the telephone area code for Saint Lucia.

It warms the heart to know that in the future, the Caribbean Federation of Nations becomes a reality, even if it's in a short story.

An entertaining read for all ages.

["So yeah you begged me to tell you this afternoon that I love you, right? There it is. I always have and never stopped loving you or being in love with you. No matter how much it was destroying me in the process. And by the way, I NEVER saved you for the glory or praise or because I saw you as a charity case. I did it because in all your shit, nonsense, and destructiveness I think you're the most beautiful thing ever created and you deserve true happiness and to be saved. Even when it means sacrificing myself."] They say everything can change in the blink of an eye, but did they ever say what can change in the span of four years? It seems like a whole lifetime has passed and along with it indescribable changes to adapt to a new version of life.

Each of the stories featured herein is set within a Universe of the writer's creation, while all being a part of a larger, shared Multiverse. At the Ooorah Mothership, we call this the M'Verse. Writers have free rein to tell the story they want to tell, providing it's sci-fi in nature and no more than 5000 words in length... then it's all good! There are, however, five "rules" to which all created Universes within the shared Multiverse must adhere. Think of them as non-mandatory prompts that weave an invisible, unbreakable web throughout this anthology. But that shouldn't prove too difficult for the writers partaking... It's time to RETURN TO THE M'VERSE.

Connections: Stories by RennoBnel

From a simple conversation happening between two Filipina astronauts, to an individual confessing his true feelings to the person he loves, to a failed missing person's investigation and the lover searching for his whereabouts in the Philippines, to a story about the woeful memories surrounding a rabbit plushie in the United Kingdom; a conversation happening between people at night with a campfire, about spirits and passion, in Norway; to a dying animal's thoughts about the person that saved it, to the letters given to the person that matters to one's life, to a man trapped in a cursed town and more. These 30 stories compiled in the months of August 2023 - February 2024, made in handwritten yellow pad papers and shared to the world for the first time shows that there are ways we find to connect with others through the stories we tell to one another. Stories dealing with the loss of a loved one, the horrors of reality, about the challenges faced in life, a longing for the person we loved, the laughter shared in-between, the hopes we treasure for tomorrow and beyond and of the little interactions that happen in life. It is through the attachments, love, support, consistency, determination and dreams do we find the will to push through and accomplish what needs to be done that is set out for us to tackle. Goals and art; sacrifices made and understood; and the belief that chasing the dream is all worth it and that it helps us connect and inspire us to do what matters the most. Language: Taglish (Mostly English) Date published: Month of February 2024
