Description

Some people call this 'Flash Fiction'; writing a story in less than one thousand words. That's quite a challenge; but one I accepted, to produced eight short stories on a wide range of topics and in a variety of styles - humour, mystery, historical, love, and a little light pondering of life and death.Included here, you will find a description of the perfect bank robbery, a Viennese mystery, an unusual love story, and even a little Leprechaun hunting in Ireland. There is the trivial, modern-day problem of ordering a coffee to the weightier, older issue of what to do once a war has been won. The aim is to make each story interesting, meaningful and enjoyable; and all in less than one thousand words.Contents:Now you see me, now you don'tCoffee?A Field, 1945The MayflyIs There Anybody There?Love At First Sight?Kaffee und KuchenHunting

Author

The starting point came when I read Austin Kleon's inspirational book 'Steal Like An Artist', in particular, "Write the book you want to read." And that's what I've been doing ever since. After privately sharing a few stories, family and friends began encouraging me to publish, and my first collection of short stories, 'Fonts', was published in summer 2023. By Christmas my first novel 'Gruseltal' was also in the online shops.Reviews for 'Fonts':"The diversity of ideas in this collection of short stories was impressive indeed, superbly clever. It showed the true skill of a creative mind, not only at work, but in his element." (Kiwi in Oz)"the work of a true storyteller. Each story has its unique vibe and unfolds like a movie in your minds eye." (Wunderbridge1)"Short, immersive, and well written stories" (Markinlisbon)
