Infinite Waters: 9+1 Speculative Fiction Short Stories now Released!

Jul 9, 2015 | My Publications

Woo hoo, exciting stuff! As promised, Infinite Waters: 9+1 Speculative Fiction Short Stories has now been released and is available on Amazon. In fact, it’s free on Kindle Unlimited!

I was planning on a big promo, but all of my funds are currently frozen (they have even forbidden us access to our safety deposit boxes). Even worse, PayPal has suspended operations in Greece (although I’m busy opening a new, UK-based account). So, I would very much appreciate any help in spreading the word while this mess is sorted out!

The anthology includes the following stories:

“Infinite Waters“: A woman seeks her future at a carnival. She discovers more than she expected.”
“The Things We Do for Lust“: Beware of Greek gods bearing gifts.
The Twist in the Tale“: A confused woman meanders through a sleepy town. But not all is as it seems.
“James’ Life“: A man with nothing to look forward to but oblivion, discovers it’s not that easy to escape his life.
“What’s in a Name?“: A trip to the tropics has an unexpected ending.
“The Lucky Bastard“: How far will the luckiest man alive go to escape his luck?
“Two’s a Crowd“: Blood runs thicker than water. Especially when you spill it.
“Is There a Doctor in the House?“: A high school student just loves to experiment.
“Sex and Dinner“: A timeless combination. Or is it?
“Would You Like Flies With That?“: Nothing’s scarier than a supermarket.
“The Hand of God“: Nothing has prepared this grizzled veteran for a meeting with his god*.
(* first published in The Power of Six)

The cover has been designed by the very talented Alexios Saskalidis of 187designz.

Nicholas Rossis is a great writer. He’s also a very generous blogger, always ready to offer advice and encouragement to fellow writers, myself included. He’s just released a new collection of short stories but, due to the Greek debt crisis (he lives just outside Athens), he’s unable to launch the book as he would like to. So, here’s my little contribution to spreading the word on his behalf. Take it away, Nicholas!

Congratulations on your new release, Nicholas, it sounds very intriguing! And I read Runaway Smile the other day – it is so completely charming 🙂 I’m sorry to hear that the Greek troubles are affecting you so adversely, I do hope that things improve for you soon. In the meantime, I’ll spread the word about your new release xx

Thank Blog your platform here is still operational, Nicholas, and your Amazon page looks fantastic. And that we can download your book no matter what those clowns in Brussels and Frankfurt are ballsing up for the continent this week. I’m sorry you’re being so badly affected by politics masquerading as fiscal policy, but I’m glad to be able to buy your book regardless (and feel like my purchase is sticking 2 tiny fingers up at the historical disaster we’ll all be shaking our heads at in 50 years’ time).

Congratulations on your new release. I love the cover design very much too. So, sad to watch the news here in Canada and hear about Greece. I think it’s terrible they’ve lock people out from their own money, and as you said even your safety deposit box. I pray resolve comes to the beautiful people of Greece very soon. I can’t wait to read your brand new novel..

Take care and best wishes to you Nicholas, from Laura ~
