Stories
Welcome to a collection of short fiction I have perpetrated upon the world. From here you can read a sample of each story I’ve made available, and buy a copy — or a collection — if you like what you see!
I’m a poor, struggling writer, so I greatly appreciate any support of my craft you can provide by buying a story or three. I receive all funds (minus PayPal’s processing fee), and none go to line the pockets of corporate publishing house stock holders. So, give my stories a little look-see and directly support the arts, if you have a spare buck or two.
(Seriously, the money will be going right to my rent and very little will be spent on Diet Dr. Pepper and Chile Picante CornNuts.)
What I currently have available (I’m always writing more):
- A Price In Every Box
- Detuned Radio
- The End of the Beginning
- At Least There’s No Traffic
- The Sword Remembers
- Story Collection, vol. 1
(UPDATE: The individual story pages have been taken down to be reworked. Please see the Story Collection page, or, better yet, the Smashwords page. Thank you!)
The stories come to you as ePub, MOBI, and PDF files compatible with iPhone/iPad, Kindle, Nook, and other reading devices.
See the FAQ for answers to questions that… are… frequently asked.
I also have some published non-fiction available:
For Confederate Girlhoods: A Women’s History of Early Springfield, Missouri, I assisted in the editing of original source material, and I researched for and wrote a tiny chapter that’s included.
And for Moon City Review 2010: An Annual of Poetry, Story, Art, and Criticism, I wrote the first essay introducing the theme of the collection, and presenting a (much too) brief look at the life and ideology of the man the collection pays tribute to: the late Dr. William Burling.
