Brainstorm.

 These stories make for a fun and a provocative read. Blending realistic settings and characters with supernatural elements. They feature magical realism within a recognizable, real-world setting. Melding fables, folktales, and myths into contemporary social relevance and portraying fantastical events in an otherwise realistic tone.

10 short stories. Sprinkled with dark humor, interwoven with the world of movies and classic literature. In ‘Fame’, an actor considers dying for the part. A poodle and a bulldog compete for the show’s championship in ‘Competition’. While in ‘Ambition’ we discover that being the least attractive sibling can turn you into a hunted criminal. A chance meeting in ‘Serendipity’ is unknowingly caused by two halves of a dead chicken. In ‘Addiction’ we join a young woman on a nightmare journey of habits too difficult to change. And in ‘Fate’ the last moments of the outgoing year cannot escape what is inevitable. Plus; 4 others.! Transformation / Schadenfreude / Pleasure / and Resurrection. 

Enjoy.
