And Ampersand

Works of Short Fiction

The perfect pocket companion for any reader who’s tussled with the tie between beginning and end.

Your death comes on slowly, while elsewhere, a nameless man fakes his own. Encased in glass, a young man navigates a world meant for those beyond. A mudslide washes away a once romantic weekend, and a childhood swim drowns all illusion of innocence.

These are but some of the tales in this collection of flash fiction, short stories, and freeform prose.
