Author Description

Long stories fill the empty gap between novels and short stories. Because of their length, long stories are richer and more complex than short stories. They allow for more characters, more intricate plots, and more freedom in style. And because they're shorter than novels, you can read one while at the beach, on a layover in Chicago, or while getting an oil change at the auto shop. In Speculative Long Fiction, you'll find nine stories about ghosts, evil succubus's, wish-granting typewriters, dystopias, the Apocalypse, hitchhikers, and colonizing the moon. In the variety of stories within, the only common theme is quality writing.
