Short Stories


         Welcome to my folder for my shorter stories. I have a couple novels I'm working on, but I, for one, am a person intensely addicted to the beauty of brevity and all that can be acomplished with it. I love that short stories cut a piece out of a larger picture and reveal it to readers. Some of the most stunning, memorable and insightful things I've been given the chance to read were short stories. You probably won't find any of that kind here, I'm afraid, but I hope that, by reading these, that you will be transported out of your reality—if only for a moment—and drawn into mine. I hope that even one of these will lead you to smile or laugh or feel, because that is all I can hope for as a writer.

                                       Thanks so much for taking a look! 1

Footnotes
1  Thanks for visiting! I sincerely hope that you can find something to interest you in here. Please beware, though... most of these were written several years ago, when I was 15 and 16 years old. I could probably overhaul them and do painfully in-depth editing, but I feel like a special part of my history would be lost if I did, so I will forge onward in hopes that my writing may somehow improve now that I'm older and (hopefully) a little bit wiser.
