In 2002, Five Star collected 10 of my short stories in a volume titled The Scent of Spiced Oranges. The book is hard to find — although there are autographed copies available here for $30.
If you'd like to read one of these stories, you may download a PDF copy of "The Fat Stamp" (originally written for the anthology Elvis Rising in 1993 and reprinted in The Scent of Spiced Oranges), for free. To do so, simply click here, and the file will download to your computer. Once you've got it, please feel free to share it with your friends.
In the near future, I'll be making the other nine stories from The Scent of Spiced Oranges available as PDFs, too, both individually and in a single file containing the complete text of the book. You may purchase individual stories for $3 each, or the complete collection for the special price of $9.99. To order, please email me, using "Spiced Oranges stories" as your subject line. In your email, let me know which story or stories you want, or if you want to order the complete collection. I'll respond with instructions for making payment via PayPal, and send you the file(s) as soon as your payment has been received. Payment will be accepted through PayPal only.
Although I'm happy to make "The Fat Stamp" available for free, the license for additional stories is for the purchaser's use only. I trust that you will honor this system and refrain from sharing any additional stories you purchase with others. If they'd like to read them, too, please ask them to pay for them — an author's gotta eat, you know!
