A Flash of Words
From Scout Media comes A Flash of Words—the fifth volume in an ongoing short story anthology series featuring authors from all over the world, but the first in which the stories are exclusively flash-fiction pieces. In this installation, no limits were set on genre, allowing the authors to lead the reader to destinations unknown; from ghosts on a flight line, to not-so-cuddly poodles, to finding love in the most unexpected of places. Within these moments of retribution and redemption—along with a slightly confused bear—these flash-fiction length stories will warm your heart, send shivers down your spine, and tickle your funny bone. Whether to be enlightened, entertained, or momentarily immersed in another world, these selections convey the true spirit of flash fiction.
A Flash of Words 2
From Scout Media comes A Flash of Words 2: The Games, the seventh volume in an ongoing short story anthology series featuring authors from all over the world, and the second in which the stories are exclusively flash-fiction pieces. In this installation, no limits were set on genre; however, the authors had to incorporate a game into the plotline, from chess, to hide and seek, to Monopoly, to poker, and even Super Mario Bros. Within these moments of competition and not always good sportsmanship, these flash-fiction length stories will warm your heart, send shivers down your spine, and tickle your funny bone. Whether to be enlightened, entertained, or momentarily immersed in another world, these selections convey the true spirit of flash fiction.
Death Threats From an Eight-Year-Old
When a mix of ideas and influences with no common theme or spirit, apart from one of desperation, becomes one of the most well-known bands of the 90s ... Mike Edwards is the singer, guitarist, and primary songwriter for the British alternative-rock band, Jesus Jones. Among having multiple chart-topping hits, releasing several albums throughout the last 3 decades, and being awarded Best New Band at the MTV Music Awards in 1991, Jesus Jones are widely known for their #1 international hit, "Right Here, Right Now." Jesus Jones continues to tour and record, now with a renewed vigor after being able to control their own destiny, freed from the grips of major labels. Mike’s debut novel, Death Threats from an Eight-Year-Old, chronicles how fast a band that is number one everywhere in the world can plummet from the good graces of the press, labels, radio, MTV, and even so-called diehard fans. A true introspective about the cutthroat music business told through the eyes and words of a man who experienced fronting one of the most well-known bands of their time, to finding his band label-less and shunned in a blink of an eye.
