Short
Journeys
is
a remarkably
versatile collection of flash
fiction stories featuring strange abilities, and how the protagonists
deal with them, stories
of
the
paranormal
and
otherworldly,
time travel, and (a favorite
subject of the author) people who can live for an extraordinarily long
time (hint: it’s not as much of a blessing as one would think.)
You’ll also be treated to a mystery for you to solve and more than a
few that plumb the
depths of human terror.
Most of these 18 works are “Flash Fiction” stories, here defined as
constituting stories of either exactly 500 or 750 words in length. And a LOT of fun, drama and
suspense is packed into these small packages, each of which
takes much skill to restrict to so short a space.
But as a bonus, a short-short story, The Cell, is included an appendix.
It is a bit longer than the others, and is set to be adapted into an
upcoming novel.
(AND, you can read one of the Flash Fiction stories in this book, "The
Sense," on our Abbott
ePublishing
Blog!)
We hope you enjoy this collection, the first fiction selection by
Stephen Abbott, published exclusively
by Abbott ePublishing.
