Been a member here for some time, and while not typically social or solicitous I did want to drop in and let everybody know that I have published my first book, a collection of six short (very short) concept stories in one concept volume: Six Shooter.

A PDF teaser can be downloaded here: https://www.createspace.com/pub/community/give.review.do?id=1077545

A public facebook album (the PDF pages turned to JPEGs, no download required) can be found here: http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/album.php?id=1437093388&aid=107396 (must copy and paste link)

And if you are impressed by the excerpt and want to support me by purchasing the book, it can be ordered here: https://www.createspace.com/3547429

eBook availability is forthcoming, as is the print version on amazon.com. If nothing else (and if you have a bit of spare time), let me know what you think!

It's horrible, made me shiver and look away. Especially so, that I am a vegan. Beautifully written. Well done.

More awful than horrible, I'd say. I'm not a big fan of starting with dialogue in the first place, but starting with several paragraphs of unattributed dialogue about an unnamed character doesn't seem like a recipe for success. Not the way to win me over, anyway. Maybe others will find it more comprehensible.

Very slick. Excellent writing style -- and good to see an illustration incorporated. Very best of luck with this publication!

Certainly interesting. I would have liked something to hand the narrative on-- knowledge of the speaker. Without that the concepts expressed become astract instead of personal.

Good luck with it.

imo:=   this could go either way...... a lot depends on how the other stories are written. good lluck with it!

In a few months, a website should be up and the whole shebang (in PDF) available for  download. Thanks for the feedback.
