    About this ebook

    Wistful Tales is a collection of short stories, one of which has been previously published in a literary magazine. The five stories that reside within these pages range from contemporary fantasy to mystery. Adventure awaits, whether it's good or bad is what you make of it.

    In "Steep Dreams", a writer named Ruth has a deadline to meet and is having a mental block, that is until her roommate offers her a peculiar solution.

    "A New Journey" tells the story of an immortal who has gone by many names in the past. Yet, out of the many names he's had and the many lives he's lived, he can't seem to let go of one.

    The story, "I Craved a Cursed Amulet's Power" follows Willa, an explorer who will do anything to get her hands on an ancient treasure, including placing her trust in a disembodied voice.

    "Shattered Connections" follows the story of a young boy named Mason who has no recollection of his father, only a charm that belonged to him in the past. That is until a ghostly figure comes before the boy and claims to know his deceased father.

    In "It Went Down at Dusk", a girl named Juliette makes her way home after her night shift. Her walk was peaceful until she witnessed something that wasn't meant to be seen by the public.

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022
