Book Description
Want to read a short story for every day of the leap year? Here’s a collection that might help. Some of these pieces tell of the fantastic, others which take us to the stars and a myriad of other worlds, and still others that horrify with creeping tales of the undead. Every story is an exploration of something that might have been and never was, or something that might yet be. Take a break from the world that is, and explore other possibilities.

With events coming to a head, we have to roll out…and be prepared to defeat the traitor in our midst, as we bring our investigation to a close. Can we do it before they strike again? Well, there’s only way to find out, isn’t there?

Book Description
Not everything goes bump in the night. Some glide sorrowfully through castle halls and others stalk the dark, looking for prey. From monsters who died long ago and still walk our world, to creatures who herald death, to those mourning the loss of a king, or grieving a loved one, the short pieces in this collection are themed around death, loss and the undead. NOTE: This collection draws together short pieces from the flash fiction and poetry collections in this series, but includes a number of short stories that can only be found within its covers.

Dragons. Every dragon piece I’ve written to date, is in this collection—and some can only be found in this collection. Whether they’re burning towns or bringing down starships, offering shelter or indulging in politics of the state, there’s a dragon present. Sometimes it’s in the background and sometimes it’s right up front where dragons belong, but it’s there. If you love dragons as much as I do, then this collection is created with you in mind.

Book Description
From ships lost to accidents in warp, space pirates and plague, to colonies facing unexpected rivals, and new lifeforms on the ground, this collection draws on some of the what-ifs and maybes surrounding humanity’s future among the stars. From flash fiction to novelette-length short stories to verse, the speculation runs from the idea of corporate takeovers of colony worlds, to unusual critter incursions, to the simplicity of plague, and how our future selves might cope when facing the gamut of human emotion on an extra-terrestrial stage.

Book Description
Shifters come in all shapes and sizes. Some can be found in the universes of Odyssey and Miss Delight, or the Pixie Dust setting, and some are found elsewhere. Whether they are laying their lives on the line for their cubs, their mates or their friends, or hunting down some unsuspecting human, they live among the heroes and villains that dwell in our imagination. Within these covers lies a dozen short stories and a swathe of flash fiction and poetry focused on shifters of many forms, from the werewolves of Lunar One to the arach and lizardine, to creatures great and small, land-bound and from the sea.
