#minithology and #scatteredstories Collections
Life is a series of doorways, sometimes they remain open and at other times they need to be closed. The wonderful individual who worked with the authors of the minithologies had to make the difficult decision to stop managing these collections.
I currently don't have a plan in place for these short stories but am considering several options.
​
My short story in the #scatteredstories collection - The Dream Spider - is still available.
