New Literary Fiction! My short story False Flags and True Hearts has just been published by the lovely editors at The Orange Rose. False Flags and True Hearts tells the tale of Kemo and Sabe, who waylay walking tours in Vienna and lead them astray. The genre is part literary fiction, part travelogue.
