Smallholding

By Damon L. Wakes

For Sale: a quaint selection of 31 very short stories, constructed one-a-day in July 2019. Would suit a buyer who's partial to comedy but doesn't mind being close to horror, sci-fi, or fantasy, possibly all at the same time. Features three recently re-spandexed superhero parodies and a spacious interactive story about duelling Australian chainsaw unicorns. Viewing advised.
