An Invitation to Readers
Join my Review Team
The Goal
My current goal is to connect with readers like you. That's pretty common for writers. But my last goal was very uncommon: I worked for two decades to finish seven novelettes at the same time. That's because I enjoy short fiction collections best when they resemble a great album of music—when each piece resonates with the whole. So now my new goal is to share a whole collection of previously unpublished novelettes with the world, and I would love your help spreading the word.
How You Can Help
The first step is that I've released three pieces as stand-alone ebooks to gather reviews. They are on Amazon, Apple, and Nook. If you’d like to join my review team, here are a few ways you can help out:
-
Read a Free Ebook: You can download one of my novelettes for free by subscribing to my newsletter. It's a great way to discover my work and decide if my style is for you.
-
Leave a Review: If you've enjoyed one of my stories, the best way you can help is by leaving a review on any of the platforms where it's available. A few kind words can make a huge difference in helping my work get noticed.
-
Spread the Word: Tell a friend who loves short, unconventional fiction. If you’re willing to be awesome, you could share a link to my website or to your favorite story on social media.
What’s Next
In the coming months, I will be publishing two of my stories on Medium and submitting four other pieces to literary magazines. I will be looking for ARC readers for some of those, so if you're interested, let me know. My hope is that with help from readers, these individual stories will gather a respectable amount of feedback. Then I’ll be ready to seek a publisher for the full collection of novelettes—a project I am very excited about, because these pieces were written to be read together as a complete collection. Kind of like Abbey Road.
