Short Stories by SlaytonXX

A collection of short stories/one shots. Sometimes I have an idea that only gets a few scenes rather than a full story. Doesn't mean the words are less meaningful.

Mediocre Writing Crappy Flow by nihalraven

Mediocre Writing Crappy Flow is the author's honest attempt at trying to complete a Novella length composition. Written during the quarantine time as part of #campnanowrimo, the present volume introduces the writing style of the author through the medium of five short stories, an essay and a flash memoir, all stand-alone-except one bonus piece at the end-the first chapter of the author's #wip , Shvapach, about a perceived utopian future at Mars when Earth is rendered uninhabitable. The first story, for kids, is about a snake charmer that allows his snake to gobble birdies. What happens of him and his snake, after they are caught in the act, is followed in the story. It tries to make kids understand the right way of feeding snakes. The second story, for lovers, is about a young couple discussing going to a film about a same-sex relationship. The discussion that follows reveals that it's not love but sympathy and trust that is binding them together. The third story, for friends, is about two childhood buddies from the same tribe who now stand opposite each other, on the implications of a dam inside the jungles. The fourth story, for scribes, explores how much the first work of an author is the reflection of her life. The fifth story, for dreamers, is about an independent woman trying to shake off her aristocratic identity. Her father makes her fall back in line using love as a weapon. The essay, for women, explores the first profession in the world by evaluating the various claimants to the title and how women came to become the first commodity. Flash memoir, for me, is a monologue of a person walking through a park during springtime, the king of seasons when everything is extra energised. Written in British English, palatable to US English readers and understandable by all others, Mediocre writing Crappy Flow, tries to put into a philosophical perspective, the day-to-day experiences that we ignore in the daily hustle of trying to put food on the table.

The Yellow Room & Other Erotica by lynnbenet

Please enjoy my first erotic short story collection. It ranges from flash fiction to the novella sized title story "The Yellow Room". There's also ten naughty poems. Some of the stories are smut. It's safe to say, this is ONLY for a mature audience. Enjoy! The Beach is a short about an overly excited newly married couple. It's followed by a flash fiction of a sex dream. Then we have our title story, a novella about a marriage in trouble. Is seeking total sexual exploration the way to fix it? What is the "Yellow Room" and how does it change their lives? Next on tap is Poem Porn, then a curious letter about a lesbian encounter going into a new world where everything is changed for all involved. Another flash fiction is next. This time it's a cutesy tale with a more tamed description. That's followed by a novelette called Chopshophop (Dirty version - used with permission) with a chance encounter after a criminal couple rip off an innocent woman whose innocence soon ends. Afterwards we get a whole week of a wildly sensual story! The final story is a shorter novelette version of our title story, but from his point of view! Look for another Yellow Room book in 2025!

Redemption's Song and other short stories by TheOrangutan

My second collection of short stories, but longer than the works in my Read my Shorts collection. This volume consists of anything more than 1000 words and includes new works, re-writes of a few older pieces and anything else I found on my computer that I'd forgotten to post before. It will contain steampunk, historical fiction, urban fantasy, science fiction, fantasy, slipstream, sci-fantasy, horror, paranormal, general oddity and anything else that happens to fall out of my ears as ideas formulate into stories. Enjoy. Comments and constructive feedback always welcomed.
