Strange Spotlight: The Birthday Cake

Strange Spotlight: The Birthday Cake


Let’s examine this cake!

 

Hi folks- time at last for episode 3 of Strange Spotlight, taking a look at another story from Strange Matters: The Birthday Cake.

Strange Matters is my collection of short stories of fantasy, myth and magic. The eBook’s available from AmazonSmashwordsGoogle Play and more, with the hardcopy on Amazon and Drive Thru RPG (where it’s cheaper!).

I opted to look at The Birthday Cake this time, because it was inspired by a Neil Gaiman story and today happens to be his birthday! HB, NG!

Having a little look at Torc.

 

Hello all! High time I returned to my Strange Spotlight series and did episode 2, which will take a look at Torc.

Returning visitors to Doing Words will know that I wrote a collection of short fantasy tales, called Strange Matters. The eBook’s available from AmazonSmashwordsGoogle Play and more, with the hardcopy on Amazon. Strange Matters contains 20 pieces of fiction and poetry that all contain a glimmer of magic; for some it’s overt, for others it’s subtle. Some are high fantasy, some are modern.
