Flashes of Scribomancy: Short Stories, Screenplays, and Other Experiments

Scribomancy (n.): the art of discovering what you meant to write-after you've already written it. Some stories behave. Others. don't. Flashes of Scribomancy is a literary collection exploring the magic-and mischief-of writing itself. Spanning multiple forms and styles, this volume brings together traditional short stories, flash fiction, scripts, and experimental pieces, including microfiction, poetry, and interactive narrative.
The collection also covers a wide range of genres including comedy, tragedy, western, science fiction, and fantasy. Some stories lean toward the eerie or supernatural; others toward the literary or darkly humorous. Within these pages you'll find haunted woods, ill-advised bargains, ghosts both literal and otherwise, and the quiet, persistent magic of words arranged just well enough to be deeply satisfying.
But not every piece follows the rules. Some stories keep to the familiar rhythms of storytelling. Others wander. A few misbehave entirely. Together, they form a record of a writer learning her craft-one revision, one risk, and one questionable decision at a time. If you enjoy short story collections with a touch of the strange, the self-aware, and the experimental, Flashes of Scribomancy invites you to turn the page and see what happens next.
