“This little book is an ebook and comes in the regulation different formats, sadly, it does not upload direct to my brain via psychic link.”…
” there’s the Bonus Short – under fifteen minutes which is mentioned in the Contents page but not in the Introduction. That’s very sneaky, just when I was wondering if this would be a really short book Carlisle sneaks in an extra story.”

“This book offers a compilation of original flash fiction and short stories in different genres, each with a twist at the end. The stories are all imaginative and clever, and varied enough for the collection to remain interesting throughout.
This would be a good collection for people who struggle to find time to commit to a longer story or full novel, as they can be read and enjoyed in a coffee break or when brief opportunities present themselves.”
