Behind the book

Starting in 2016, I started entering some of eSpec Books monthly flash fiction contests. Who's to say what the future might have brough had I not won that first one that I entered.

But I was a co-winner, and that encouraged me to keep trying. And I won several more times over the next three years. As a result, I was asked to combine these with some new stories into an anthology that became, "In A Flash 2020".

Twenty great flash stories, perfect for your mass transit commute.
