It's my wedding anniversary this week, so, since i'm busy being in love, I thought I'd give you my top short stories of this year so far. Why specifically 9? Because my wife and I have beeen together for 9 years (married for 4).
Alana, who looks just like her father. Beil who looks just like her mother. And Corinthe, who looked like neither. And therein lay each sister's problem.
*One night stands usually go away in the morning. Usually. Unfortunately for Louisa, this particular one night stand who she was never meant to see again has turned up at the Summit. At best, that complicates matters, at worst, it could be deadly.*
*Since Juliette can't conscionably host her usual holiday party, she has invited her family (including Jason & Penelope) home for the last two weeks of december instead.*
Naoko never expected to have a Soulmate, let alone one she had found in so many past lives. Unfortunately, said soulmate is not her current girlfriend.
*Shelley has been asked to present his poetry at a fancy event, it's a shame he can't get his crush out of his mind.*
Slice of Life short stories are, surprisingly enough, stories set in the contemporary real world -- this particular list also won't contain any fantastical elements even though the tag does, it's like a snapshot of a could-be-real person's life. Plenty of LGBTQ characters to be found.
With Covid-19 restrictions, Juliette's christmas party has been cancelled. Instead of gathering, she's sent out party favour packages and has scheduled an online chat with Penelope and Jason.
*Normally Tui would spend the christmas period in her jandals on the beach, or having a cookout in the yard with her family. This year she's shivering in her winter coat, wondering how anyone can be merry in this cold dreary hemishpere!*
The most terrifying experience for one can be the most fun for another. What happens when KC’s brother turns up at the Haunted House KC works at? Fun and Fear of course!
