I bought this some time ago at a convention, it’s one of those really special tomes I’ve been saving, not for a rainy day, but for when I need a change. All I can say is that I should have read it earlier!

It’s one of those books I got to mention in writing class today as we talked about short fiction. These are jewels, written by authors from all over the world with a word count of no more than 750 words for each story, some of them are much less. I thought I had guessed how some were going to end and I was completely wrong except for one story with an ending as expected but such beautiful writing I had to read it three times, all the rest were such a surprise.

They are not for the faint hearted. I’d suggest they’re streets ahead of Steven King and I’d probably even put in a trigger warning or two.

I’m saying nothing more other than giving you the list of authors and a place to buy it at a vast discount, sadly the publishing company is no longer with us. While you’re there you should buy more books to make the postage worthwhile.
