Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What happens when imagination refuses to stay within a single genre?Inside My Mind: Volume II continues Douglas Owen's collection of short stories and flash fiction, bringing together work from 2014 through 2017. Science fiction, fantasy, dystopian worlds, dark humour, horror, and the downright strange collide in stories that explore humanity at its best, its worst, and sometimes its most bizarre.In Jumping Life, an interstellar mission spanning unimaginable stretches of time hides a disturbing secret about the price of travelling between the stars. Snow in April follows survivors struggling through a devastated southern Ontario where civilization has collapsed beneath an endless winter.Got One takes a very different journey into the mind of an office worker whose escape into the wilderness becomes something far darker. Dungeon reminds us that appearances-and perhaps reality itself-cannot always be trusted.In Words, language takes on consequences far beyond ordinary conversation, while Power puts the reader inside the existence of an aging vampire. Then stories such as Disposal and Fluffer venture into the more twisted corners of Owen's imagination.From distant worlds and collapsing civilizations to magic, monsters, death, survival, and the strange possibilities hiding inside ordinary life, Inside My Mind: Volume II moves freely between genres and storytelling styles. Some stories take time to build their worlds. Others strike quickly and leave the reader to deal with what comes afterward.Also included is a bonus preview of The Hordes, Book One of the Broken World series.Enter another collection of worlds, people, possibilities, and things that may be better left unexplained.
