No rules. Just write.: Whoops! I accidentally wrote a short story!

Whoops! I accidentally wrote a short story!

I'm not yet happy with the two novels I've been working on, so last month I started writing my first-ever short story in an attempt to recharge my creativity. It was a great writing exercise, and the story came out so well that I have published it at Amazon's Kindle Store. Here's the product description for "Living it Up in Fiddly Falls":

She might be as old as the hills, but she's not dead. So what is Maryann Flemming's obituary doing on Page 4 of the Fiddly Falls Citizens Gazette?

Folksy and fun, this 7,000-word short story is a quick read featuring Christian themes and a touch of romance. Download it now to enjoy during your next coffee break or at bedtime. (Goes great with cookies!)

I can certainly relate to your writing process, as I also decided to write a short story to spark up my creativity. I wish you the best with this book. Already having good reviews. Keep it up.

;)

Kelvin, congratulations on publishing your shortie and getting those good reviews. All the best to you.; 11:08 AM, January 11, 2014

What brought me to this site is your simplicity: No rules. Just write. I read the preview of your book Living it Up in Fiddly Falls: A Short Story and found it interesting.

All the best and keep up the good work!!!
