The Short Story Tally

The Short Story Tally: A lovely reader asked me for a “one-stop” shop for the short stories, and readers are the bosses. There are four more stories that have been accepted and not yet published. Stay tuned for more updates!

The latest story to be published is “The Last Lost Eye.” It is available for your reading pleasure on the great site Literally Stories. “The Last Lost Eye” is the tale of Odysseus and the Cyclops from the Cyclops’ injured point of view. If you like what your read, please tell someone about the story. And, a HUGE shoutout to Literally Stories for publishing my work.
