A new short story has just hit my website!
Every month I like to write and share a new fantasy short story, anywhere from a 3- to 15-minute read. It's a good opportunity to practice writing in various voices and perspectives, to overcome weaknesses, and to use ideas that won't work (or I have no intention of using) in full-scale books - all while still working on whatever large-scale project I have on my shoulders (most recently, finishing off a trilogy that has taken me far too many years).
This short was far more experimental; less a short story than an excerpt from a fake book of essays written in a fictional world.
The World Changes At Night
Excerpt from Professor Jaeger's 'Analysing Controversies and Speculation over the Oro-Empirical and Pre-Dansk Psychological Treatise; Death, Magic and Allies', published 1295, Leid Press.
