A real bargain and a total of *counts carefully* an absolute spaffload of stories. Dark Stars, Wyrms 2 and The Book of Drabbles contain stories by me but I'm afraid it's not possible to have those removed before purchase.
🚨Bundle!🚨

You can grab 15 drabble anthologies for only $12 from the Shacklebound Bookstore!

Want some flash fiction? 👀
Want stories about crabs and queers and love and regret?
This is a ridiculous amount of flash from my first couple years of seriously publishing fiction. I love everything in here. <3

Please repost! I'll be your best friend! <3

I have a story in this! The ToC is wild, the stories are incredible. If you want a weird west anthology, that's the one you NEED. Buy a copy, and check out 'Five Lemons in a Net', my story of trauma, soul-eating shadows, and of course, the importance of shopping lists 🔥
