Story Titles and the Getting Justice StoryBundle!

We’re delighted to announce SP author Kari Kilgore is in a new StoryBundle! We’ll let Kari explain, and talk a bit about writing Independent by Means of Magic:

I couldn’t be happier to see my Victorian Era crime fantasy novel Independent by Means of Magic included in the Getting Justice StoryBundle, partly because of the unusual way this story took shape in the writing engine inside my head. I had to give myself time to find the story in this case, and finding the eventual title was a journey all by itself.

There are nine other fantastic books by some of my favorite writers in this bundle, all with their own unique focus on justice and how to get it. And you can get all the ebooks at a great bargain, but check it out before time runs out!

A Year of Short Stories and Collections (so far)

SP author Kari Kilgore on her year focusing on the shorter side of fiction. You’re sure to find a collection that suits your tastes for your end-of-summer short story reading!

With August being my birthday month, I often take stock of how the year is going in all kinds of ways. Since this website focuses on my fiction, that’s where my thoughts turned today.

I didn’t especially plan it as 2021 came into focus through the chaos and confusion toward the end of the decade of 2020, but this has turned into The Year of Short Stories and Collections. And I’m having all kinds of fun with the writing and the publishing.

Short stories or novels, the Cattitude StoryBundle has you covered!

One of the great things about the Cattitude StoryBundle is the mix of story lengths included, which is one huge reason I would have definitely grabbed a copy even if I didn’t have a book included.

No matter how you look a it, this StoryBundle is too great to pass up! But with only a little over a day left, you don’t want to let it slip away.
