Short Stories for People with Short Attention Spans

Rate this book
Short Stories for People with Short Attention Spans is an eccentric collection for readers who find themselves perplexed by long plots, slow-burn romances, and paragraphs that stretch longer than a T-rex’s afternoon shadow. Penned by A.J. Simmons (author of Jesus and Joe Strummer), these tales are bite-sized, perfect for your morning commute in your horse and carriage, a tea break, or your futile attempts to avoid your feelings of existential dread.

This book has something for nearly everyone—though perhaps not for your peculiar Uncle Hendrich. He won’t like it. Inside, you’ll find stories that will make you laugh, cry, and wonder if your music choices are secretly plotting against you. There are serious stories soaked in love, death, longing, and (naturally) a few demonic entities that could use a good exorcism. There are fun stories filled with Christmasy love, music, witches, and the awesome power of friendship. And an orange tabby cat who will absolutely judge you.

If your attention span is closer to a caffeinated gerbil’s than a scholar’s, you’ve found your new favorite book. Step right up, dear reader, laugh until your heart’s content, maybe cry a little, get scared, and this book is for you—the delightful, distracted, soul who can’t stay focused on a story for longer than ten minutes. This book sees you, it adores you, and it hopes you love it back—before it runs off to chase a butterfly.

the tabby cat might be watching.
