Hello, there. I'm a print-published author who writes short stories that are not always suitable for magazines for a variety of reasons - mainly that they don't fit into the current trends. I've just put one on Kindle for 99 cents under a pseudonym to see if there's any appetite for them - it's a fast-paced conspiracy thriller involving a lobbying firm that isn't what it seems, Swiss banks, neo-Nazis and terrorism, but with a dry sense of humour and some (hopefully) unusual and head-spinning twists to it. It's around 8,000 words long, and you can find it here:
