Almost Hemingway

by Nanette Littlestone

A Short Story

Winning the Hemingway short story contest is the highlight of Jan Clarell's life. An all expenses paid trip to Venice and dinner at the renowned Harry's Bar where Hemingway himself hung out with other famous authors well, who could top that? But Venice serves its own complications and takes Jan in a direction she hadn't anticipated.

About the author

Nanette Littlestone’s emotional stories take the reader on a journey of the heart. An award-winning novelist and gourmet, Nanette believes in happily ever after. Her pragmatic side realizes that most people don’t live fairy tale lives, so her stories explore the struggles we face, the plans that backfire, the heart-wrenching decisions we have to make, plus the joy, the delight, the happiness when we courageously embrace our dreams. It’s all about the love, and good food. She's the author of the historical novel “The Sacred Flame” (set in ancient Rome), the contemporary sequel “Bella Toscana,” the underwater YA fantasy "The Heart of Everything," and the first two books in the Irish romance series "For the Love of Brigid" and "Sweet Dreams by Claire." She lives in Atlanta, GA but still calls California home, loves making origami butterflies, and watching romantic movies that make her cry. Her favorite quote: “Flattery will get you nowhere. Chocolate, everywhere.”

Got this free ebook on my tablet and read it quickly in one sitting. The story had some intriguing elements that drew me in pretty fast. I believe that I would enjoy reading other work by this author.
