Within these pages, the custodians of some great tales, you will experience excitement, humor, pathos intrigue and fear – if only for a leading character that has won your affection. This is because I believe a good story, long or short, should have a beginning, middle and an end, and hopefully, an unexpected twist or two. It should induce the reader, before turning the page to wonder, 'What is going to happen next' or, 'How are they going to get out of that'?
As the storyteller, I have striven to offer my readers real diversity; they could find themselves in a familiar, or maybe an unfamiliar, environment, or they may experience life in a different era – or maybe in the present. However, always, I hope, they will be eager to turn the page.
En route, they will encounter many genres, from thriller to romance, comedy to Gothic, western to fantasy, and all are studies of the human condition to which we are familiar, albeit in varying situations and circumstances.
Therefore reader, for your enjoyment, here are nine stories of which it is impossible to describe any two as similar. In addition, there is a five-page drama, in verse, of a bullfight – from the bull's viewpoint. Then at the end, you will enjoy 'A little bit of Whimsy'.
All this interesting variety represents many hours of entertainment, that I know you will agree, offers extraordinarily, good value.
In closing, I would like to mention that I have, sometimes, heard people comment, 'I’m not really into short stories'. If you think you are one of those, just give this commuting companion a try –I know it will change your mind and you will be delighted!
