The Poet and the Crock -- Humor
My newest story, The Poet and the Crock, is up. A poet of questionable talent meets a leprechaun of dubious character -- truths are revealed, hearts are broken, and (hopefully) everyone is smiling at the end -- especially the reader. Please note that I take poetry much more seriously than this story would seem to indicate.
The price is 99 cents, but coupon code XL76X will get you the book for 100% off and is good until September 6th. As always, reviews and feedback are welcome! (And, thanks!) |

Thanks, Froide! I was trying to get too many things done at the same time and missed that little detail!
Hope you enjoy it! |

Thanks! For the record, I'm in a small writer's workshop group with a bunch of poets, who may have inspired the story. (But I did make sure no one was offended by my irreverent treatment of serious poetry!)

Saint Patrick's Day will roll around again this Saturday. Why not stay inside where it's warm and settle back with a light story about a leprechaun and a small crock of gold? And maybe a mug of (Irish) coffee?
Enjoy! https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/465204 |
