Connie Bailey

Connie Bailey is a Luddite who can’t live without her computer. She’s an acrophobic who loves to fly, a fault-finding pessimist who, nonetheless, is always surprised when something bad happens, and an antisocialite who loves her friends like family. She’s held a number of jobs in many disparate arenas to put food on the table, but writing is the occupation that feeds her soul.

Connie lives with her ultralight designer husband at a small grass-strip airfield halfway between Disney World and Busch Gardens. Logic and reality have had little to do with her life, and she likes it that way.

Even if the are oneshot the story are so boring that they appeared lonnng! Not very interesting and definitively cliche.

After the Storm by Chrissy Munder was the best one, very poignant.

Revenant by Connie Bailey is probably the worst story I'd ever read, it's like a train wreck. +/- 25 perso, +/- 25 point of view, personals stories too complicated that did nothing for the main story. Too much rape, too much violence, too much murder. Simply horrible.
