Short Story Press Presents A Serious Matter by Virlanda Miller When wronged, is it better to seek revenge or to forgive? A Serious Matter describes the efforts of two long-lost childhood friends, Jeannie and Violet, to come to terms with their hatred of a mutual, unnamed enemy. • Jeannie already has a restraining order against the man, her estranged husband who previously tried to kill her. • The same man also killed Violet’s fiancé in a drunk-driving accident on Violet’s wedding day and feels no remorse.

Short Story Press Present True Wind by Matthew Kilpatrick “True Wind” is a fantasy adventure story set in a secondary world where magic exists and so do merfolk (although not in the form traditionally depicted in similar stories). Moonheart, a young merman of the Calm Winds tribe, is sent on a mission to rescue a human (or “drylander”) woman from the clutches of another drylander country’s enemy nation. He must also take his young, vulnerable sister, True Wind along, so that she may discover her destiny. The story features: • A secondary fantasy world filled with magic and other strange things • A young merman’s struggle with bravery and conflicting loyalties • A young secondary antagonist who hopes to discover her destiny, even if it means facing danger • A dangerous rescue mission performed in an unknown, foreign land • A climactic and unexpected resolution The story begins with a depiction of the lives of Moonheart and his fellow merfolk but soon transforms into a suspenseful adventure where the stakes are high and a false or ill-considered move can mean disaster. You will follow Moonheart’s quest to protect True Wind at any cost, even if it means denying her destiny. He may learn, however, that destiny is not something one can thwart, no matter how determined they may be. Short Story Press publishes short stories written by everyday writers.

Short Story Press Presents Summer of Saracens by James England In the summer of 777 AD, Charlemagne rode out to conquer the Saracens and reclaim Hispania for the Holy Roman Empire. While immortalized in the words of medieval poets, scholars, and historians, the story never told is the one of what happens when all the men leave and the village is left to run itself. This is a story of Lady Matilda, the wife of Lord Harold, one of Charlemagne’s many lieutenants. After Lord Harold departed, nearly two years ago, Matilda, her maiden Marta, and her steward Otto, had been left to maintain the affairs of their small hamlet of Doblesmark. With resources stretched thin from the long war, rumors of plague and highwaymen besetting them, Matilda must boldly find a way to meet the needs of her people, the pressing urgency of the papacy, and most of all her own sanity. Accompanied by her maiden, Marta, she must deftly navigate the intricacies of managing the affairs of the folk of Doblesmark while ensuring their own survival. When will Lord Harold return? Will Bandits beset the village in its sleep? And what of this strange pagan festival that will begin the rites of summer? And what will ever befall them in this ever perilous Summer of Saracens?

Book Description
Short Story Press Presents Dead People's Letters by Matthew Kilpatrick “Dead People’s Letters” is a story that should appeal to fans of ghosts and zombies as well as fans of Fyodor Dostoevsky’s classic works. It not only places the undead in the middle of 19th century Russia, but also makes them the central characters of the story and also good friends with one another. “Dead People’s Letters” is a complex and layered story that examines: - The relationship between the body and the soul, and where one leaves off and the other begins. - The differing physical and mental natures of men and women. - The theme of obsession, and being the object of another’s obsession. - The theme of desperation and deciding what one is willing to do in order to become free of a tormentor. The letters between Ivan Pavelovich and Philippa Pytrovna tell the story of both characters, and how though each is dealing with their own problems, their plight eventually becomes a shared one and they realize that only the two of them truly understand each other’s situation, and they can only rely on one another for help, guidance and solace. They also learn that it is only through one another that they can escape from their seemingly doomed existence. Short Story Press publishes short stories written by everyday writers.
