AwesomeDude is a site that brings a cornucopia of stories to readers at no cost. Midnight Dude: Selected Readings is a showcase of that talent, bringing you 18 wonderfully different stories by 18 talented authors.
The majority of these stories were written especially for this anthology whilst just a few are the editors favourites from the site. There is something for everyone here. Fantasy and stark realism. War stories and sports. Humor and pathos. Angst and passion.
The one constant is fine writing, and stories that will hook you and keep you turning pages. This is but a small sample of what is available on the site, but each of these stories will provide a magical escape into the world of the imagination for the reader.
Please Come With Me: The frantic adventure of a teenager trying to remain brave while confronting a hostile world.
Show Time!: The show must go on, if ever they can get the characters straightened out!
Some Enchanted Evening: A love story to die for. Set in a decaying country house this intense and atmospheric story will pull the reader into a world of the liminal.
Algy’s Peril: Boarding school, dreams of what might be, and stark reality all come together in this delightful coming of age tale.
Priorities: There is so much to learn when you’re 15 and at war with the world and everyone in it.
Having Put In Time: Knowing someone isn’t right for you and doing something about it are two completely different things, especially with the complexities of today’s world.

Finding Home: This remarkable story by a young author builds to a crashing climax that will leave the reader with a smile and a wish for more.
A Christmas Gift: An unexpected attraction at the mall leads to life-changing events and Christmas to remember.
A Flower In France: War’s brutality and how that can touch those who experience it is graphically illustrated in this moving story.
Thrown For A Loop: Coming out to your parents, looking for acceptance from the ones you love, opens the door to the unknown.
