I'm all caught up on adding everyone's books to the index list. If you post an announcement in this thread and use a KB-generated text link to mention your books, I'll continue to add your books to the list. For more information on how to create a text link, see the OP.

[cblewgolf]

Thanks for doing this, Kevis.

My short is actually FREE today.

The Chemist - Based on a Short Story

[Ruth]

Just stumbled onto this thread. What a great idea! I just released a collection of romantic short stories. I also have another collection coming out shortly.


I didn't add the link in my previous posts.  Here is the link to my short story collection....

The Wedding and Other Short Romantic Stories

[Jorja Tabu]

I just noticed this too, when I was promoting a give-away today    Awesome idea!

I have three novellas, the first of which is FREE today:

DEEPER


DEEPER: A Contemporary Romance by Jorja Tabu

LOUDER

LOUDER: A Contemporary Romance

HARDER


HARDER: An Erotic Romance

and they are all available in this compilation of multicultural erotica:
DEEPER, LOUDER, HARDER: Lust and Love in Three Stories; A Compilation of Multicultural Erotica

I actually have two more stories, but I think that's enough self-promo for today!  Thank you again for this great idea!

[Tony Rabig]

The Point -- a short ghost story.  Mentioned this one and three others a few weeks ago on the thread, but The Point was 99 cents at the time.  Amazon finally put through the price match this week, and that story is now free. 

Others also available:
The Other Iron River, and Other Stories -- collection of three stories
Five of the Haunted -- collection of five stories; includes "The Point"
They're Waiting -- single short story.

Give 'em a look if you get a chance; reviews appreciated.

Thanks again for the thread.

Supervillain: The Concise Guide is a humor/parody book around 26,000 words. It entertains those who have a few hours to spare and want a quick guide on how to conquer the planet. Enjoy!

[tom st. laurent]

I bet there is more drama in history and more comedy in your own life than in all the creative boogeyboos and starwars you could read in a lifetime--because it's REAL. I know that's the case in my life, short story though it is. So, write it. Read it.

Based on a true story, Putting May to Rest is a short story of a girl's 18th birthday and holiday season interrupted by the demise of one of the family's matriarchs and the absurdities experienced during this period. A sad and sometimes hilarious story of death, dysfunction and dim sum.

[winspearj]

My new fantasy short 'To Skin a Troll' is available via my signature link, alongside 'The Huntress', both of which form part of the Tales from the Woods series. If you like dark folklore then they might be just the thing.

Kevis; thanks for this great thread.

"The Straw Man and a Murder" is a 5,000 word tale of innocence and retribution.

Praise for "The Straw Man and a Murder"

"Overall: 4 1/2 stars...the sort of [horror] story where the pleasure is in knowing what is coming and waiting for that pay off...I find the author to be ridiculously talented.  If the writing isn't as effortlessly good as it seems, and when is it really as effortlessly good as it seems, then he can keep it his little secret..."
--MichelleR, Red Adept Reviews

Hi, all! I have a bunch of short stories and novelettes (10k and under). They are in my signature and fall into the genre of erotic romance and some gothic/erotic romance. Some are pretty cheap as well at .99 and $1.99. Bat out of Hell, the one in my profile pic, is just .99 and is my newest release. Long live the shorter works! I enjoy writing them.
