Short Fiction Various: Past Masters Eleven (v1); 5 Oct 2020

[Pulpmeister]

The 11th in an ever growing anthology series of stray short stories from newspapers and magazines.

I do not pick and choose, my purpose is rather to collect anything, bundle them together in anthologies of roughly 100,000 words, and make them available to the public.

The last story is by Charles G Booth, a Hollywood screenwriter who died relatively young, and who published a number of hard-boiled/noir novels and short stories. There is also an anonymous Sherlock Holmes spoof from 1895 for collectors of Sherlockiana.

There is a cumulative index to all eleven antholgies so far.
