Odds and Endings and The Infinite Bard!

Happy Wednesday, all, and welcome to The Infinite Bard! I’m delighted to return to the magical stage with a new free tale to share with all of you. Settle in and get comfortable, and I hope you enjoy Odds and Endings, the first of my stories from the peculiar Appalachian Mountain town of Lightning Gap, Virginia.

Be sure to check out my Infinite Bard page for a bunch of other fantastic free reads, including my first two turns on the mystical stage. And don’t forget a new tale will appear on the main page at www.TheInfiniteBard.com every other Wednesday.

Happy reading!

Story Titles and the Getting Justice StoryBundle!

I couldn’t be happier to see my Victorian Era crime fantasy novel Independent by Means of Magic included in the Getting Justice StoryBundle, partly because of the unusual way this story took shape in the writing engine inside my head. I had to give myself time to find the story in this case, and finding the eventual title was a journey all by itself.

There are nine other fantastic books by some of my favorite writers in this bundle, all with their own unique focus on justice and how to get it. And you can get all the ebooks at a great bargain, but check it out before time runs out!

My Year of Short Stories and Collections (so far)

With August being my birthday month, I often take stock of how the year is going in all kinds of ways. Since this website focuses on my fiction, that’s where my thoughts turned today.

I didn’t especially plan it as 2021 came into focus through the chaos and confusion toward the end of the decade of 2020, but this has turned into The Year of Short Stories and Collections. And I’m having all kinds of fun with the writing and the publishing.

You’re sure to find a collection that suits your tastes for your end-of-summer short story reading!
