When Turtles Fly

My new short story collection, TURTLE FEATHERS, is live on Amazon! I've enrolled it in KDP Select, which means that KDP Select members can borrow it for free, but it costs a whopping $0.99 for everybody else. Hang on, though, because I can make it free for EVERYBODY for five days, as soon as I decide which five days to pick. I haven't set up a page for it on this blog yet, because I didn't expect it to go live so quickly. I submitted it, and it was live within a couple of hours. Here's the link on Amazon, if you want to go see it there: TURTLE FEATHERS by Marian Allen.

Here's the product description:

The dog Joseph's stepmother gave him leads him away from his intended route. Disobedience puts a young mermaid's life into the relentless claws of a crab. A penguin thinks his fortune is made when he discovers a cache of Scotch. More off-beat animal stories from the author of LONNIE, ME AND THE HOUND OF HELL.

You may have read some of these stories right here on this blog, or in other places around the net or in anthologies, but the point of a collection is to … well … collect the stories into one convenient volume. Feel free to click the Like button at the top of the product page, recommend it on Facebook and Twitter, agree (or disagree) with the product tags, leave a review for the stories you've read before, and, of course, buy a copy.

This being Tuesday, I'm posting at Fatal Foodies on the subject of hummus.

WRITING PROMPT: A character sets something in motion that moves much more quickly than anticipated.
