    About this ebook

    For most of 2014, author Anne B. Walsh has been making Fridays fictional on her blog, Anne's Randomness, by writing flash fiction, stories between five hundred and one thousand words long, for her fans to enjoy. Now, for the first time, all those Fiction Friday posts are rolled together into one collection, featuring stories suitable for every day of the week:

    Fairy Tale Fridays: New spins on old favorites, with Anne's usual quirky humor uppermost at all times.

    Thunder Thursdays: Bits from Anne's historical fantasy series the Chronicles of Glenscar, featuring characters from "A Widow in Waiting".

    Worldview Wednesdays: When an author looks at her own life through fiction goggles, here's what results.

    Trycanta Tuesdays: Humans and dragons and cats, oh my! Fantasy selections from the home of Tales of Anosir and "Homecoming".

    Madcap Mondays: Because life is no fun if things are too predictable...

    Anne B. Walsh

    Anne B. Walsh was telling stories about magic and intrigue from the time she could talk, but it took her twenty years to realize she could make a living at it. Her first novel, historical fantasy "A Widow in Waiting", has its origins in a PBS special which changed her life; her second, family-focused fantasy "Homecoming", takes its inspiration from some of her other writing; and her third, soft science fiction "Killdeer", stems from her constant interest in the ways in which the future and the past coincide. Anne lives east of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with one roommate (Krystal), two black Labs (Buddy and Brando), and two black cats (Starsky and Hutch). Sadly, their Cane Corso mastiff, Bruce, passed away in mid-August 2013, and their first cats, Poppy and Sesame, who helped inform Anne's first collection of short stories, "Cat Tales", passed out of their lives after an accident on Christmas Day 2013. No one ever said life was fair. Anne's parents and siblings live two hours north of her, otherwise known as just far enough away. She has also been writing Harry Potter fan fiction for more than ten years and is known best in that genre as the creator of the "Dangerverse" alternate universe (which inspired "Homecoming"). Beyond writing fiction, Anne's preoccupations include reading fiction; singing anywhere that will have her, including her church and local galas; theatre, especially musicals; all forms of cooking; and her family and friends. Within writing fiction, her preoccupations are much the same, meaning most of her stories involve loving families, delicious food, and good music. Consider yourself warned. A number of projects continue to need Anne's attention as she writes her original novels. Among these are her ongoing fanfiction works in various fandoms such as Harry Potter and Frozen, and the themed fantasy anthologies she co-authors with her friend and fellow author Elizabeth Conall.
