Moonlit Dances for Shy Skeletons

“This collection of short stories were originally written for a class I took in my final year of college. I actually took the class for an easy A and to help round out my GPA for a career in computer science. What I least expected was to find a love and joy of writing.”

“These stories are a wide and varying collection of my works from a writing class. Despite my relative lack of experience, my classmates suggested that my writing was good enough to publish even before the class. Throughout the class, I sought to stretch and build my skills in the realm of story craft. One of the most crucial elements of this is to write many shorter stories to build a strong framework from which one can write novels. This work is the summation of my accomplishments. I hope you may find them both entertaining as well as informative as I guide you through what prompted the story as well as what kinds of thoughts I had throughout my process.”
