Author Description

Every author's journey is different. Some have been handed a golden keyboard from God and get their first manuscript published with seven-figure contracts. Others struggle for years, even decades before their first manuscript is published (if ever). Equal parts short story anthology and writer's insight, Unplugged & Unfinished is a collection of one author's experiences and struggles over an eight-year span. This collection includes several of Sam's published short stories as well previously unreleased material and non-fiction articles for aspiring writers. It includes such pieces as: "A Good Bowl of Ramen" "X(istential Squad)!" A deleted scene from "First Flight" "The Tracker," an unused scene for a novel "Writing Tips for Newbies by a Newbie" An early version of Chapter 1 from The Thief and The Red Mandolin A sneak peek at an upcoming novel, The Guild of Steam
