Medieval Fantasy, Quick Read, & A Little Dark The Bloodiest Sword is King by Bria Burton A stranger approaches the gate to the Catastrapha's kingdom, and Xildar must decide whether he is a friend or foe. Free Today Only READ NOW Fantasy Friday 5/24/19 Each weekday, Havok Publishing presents a genre-themed story, and my first flash fiction story is appearing today in their Fantasy Friday slot. My short stories tend to range between 5,000 and 15,000 words. In other words, they're not very short.

The contest rules were simple: the title must include "Journey Into," the genre should be spec fic (science fiction, fantasy, and/or horror), and there had to be a journey of some kind within the story. For the contest, I wanted to write a science fiction story involving isolation either on or near the moon. I brainstormed ways to incorporate a moon colony. Eventually, I decided to set the story on a space s...

April 26, 1777 It's not a holiday, nor a date most would associate with the American Revolution. Even the name Sybil Ludington conjures up a daring, sixteen-year-old revolutionary for few Americans today. In time, I hope that will change. In “Her Midnight Ride,” a short story featured in The Prometheus Saga Vol. 2 , Sybil is the main protagonist fighting for American Independence. A Revolutionary Heroine & a Sci-Fi Twist “ Her Midnight Ride ” is available as a Kindle Single Story While the story is based on historical facts, the premise of each short story in The Prometheus Saga revolves around the idea that an alien presence is observing humanity throughout history, watching how we evolve over time and intervening when desired. The collected stories are part of a science fiction anthology created by the Alvarium Experiment. The Prometheus Saga Vol. 2 is available on Amazon In “Her Midnight Ride,” history dominates and the science fiction is subtly ...
