OUCH! BRAIN SPLINTERS: A Special Selection of Flash Fiction & Short Stories

by C. Anthony Biron

A terrible evil lurks in the old decrepit city, and the Devil changed his mind. The king is dead, but the people won't let him die. A fingernail hands on no matter how I rip and tear, and an unlucky cow discovers alien life really is out there. A witch has her just retort, a homemaker stirs a pot of visions, and a lonely spaceship hurtles through the cosmos, its crew, disembodied neural figments. Enjoy this collection of smashed and shattered brain splinters meticulously swept up, puzzled together, and glued into 8 original oddities.

About the author

Sci-fi, horror and thriller author of the novels ‘After Oxygen’ and 'Atlas Arch'. I’m especially interested in how technology such as space exploration, artificial intelligence, and biology collide with our traditional ideas about philosophy, religion, morality, and the individual.
