About this ebook
Short and Sweet is a 100 page unique anthology of food-themed short stories from six Australian authors. The stories span fiction (romance, fantasy, humour, crime) and non-fiction (philosophy, marine science) genres, following a 'recipe book' analogy of appetizer, main and dessert. Each set of three interlinked stories is linked by food somehow e.g. plot, character, place as the story linkage just as long as food was the theme. Each set of three stories also includes a recipe that is related to the stories. For lovers of short reads and foodish themes.
