Writing pure nonsense is something one could conceivably program a computer to do, but writing the sort of nonsense that a human might want to read still requires that human mental touch which we can all be thankful for or not.
This collection contains 100 stories each about a page in length and each by a different author. A page is about the right length for both reader and writer. Writers can say they are done in short order and readers, if they don’t like a particular story, can move on to the next story quickly
Surprisingly there are a lot of nice stories here. I will point out only three. Michael Rumsey’s “107: A Nefarious Tale of Nursery Crime” takes one to a courtroom in fantasy land. Judy Dykstra-Brown’s “183: Shooing With Tongue on the Tongue of a Shoe” uses anapestic meter and rhyme to make nonsense sound even more nonsensical. Rose Cheung’s “197: Detergent Pods for the Win” shows readers how to outsmart vampires with stupidity.
If any readers get inspired to write nonsense of their own, and dare to show it to the world, there is a volume 3 being assembled.

Like its predecessor this voulume shoots up and down, in and out, left and right. 100 authors are to be congratulated for producing a funny action packed entertaining volume.
