Secondhand Madness: A Collection of 30 Weird Short Stories

Muses come in many forms, and sometimes from many forums.

There are places where ideas are bartered, inspirations traded, and concepts offered up as a cure for writer's block. Each seed of an idea has the potential to grow into literary redwood, or at least a wordy sunflower.

30 of those borrowed ideas became this anthology.

The stories here are not constrained to one genre or setting, but go on a wild ride through the paths made by the kind souls who posted the prompts which became inspiration.

Waiting for you are:

• An overworked technician faced with a laptop that's bleeding.
• An online intervention for a demon hunter making questionable romantic choices.
• A chatty spellcasting highwayman who just wants to meet new people.
• Undying robotic war machines.
• Dragons, both modern and of other worlds
• A deadly swordsman turned nanny.
• First dates with destiny.
• Last moments for the doomed.
• Horror and comedy, action and drama, the strange, the alien, and new angles on the familiar.

Experience... Secondhand Madness!
