Anyway, if it is I have a collection of 12 short stories that I would like reviewed I, Tomorrow? and Other Stories It's a bit of a mixture, there's some sci-fi, a couple of romantic tragedies, a Greek tragedy and a few other things.

The book is called The House That Smelled Like Urine and other short stories. A classic example of the old adage, "don't judge a book by it's cover." Nothing is what it seems, nor will it be the same again, once you open its pages.

Yesterday, I released a collection called Pickled Bananas and Other Schwartz Stories. The collection is fourteen quirky stories. Right now, it is only available via Amazon (because I am trying out the KDP Select with this release). But, if there are any takers out there, let me know offline and I can slip you an epub. I would love to get reviews on Goodreads and possibly Amazon.
Thank you in advance!

I have a recently published short story collection that I am looking to have reviewed by discerning readers.
Here are the relevant links below. Please PM me via Goodreads mail if you are interested. Many thanks.

SUMMARY: Whether it be nail-biting courtroom suspense surrounding a celebrity star on trial; the tear-jerking return journey of an ageing war veteran to the battlefield of his youth; an hilarious account from a dog's perspective of the eccentric clientele that frequent his master's restaurant; a bittersweet tale of a vendetta waged by a young girl denied her favourite ice cream; or the adrenalin-fuelled adventures of a terminal cancer patient turned base jumper - these make up just a handful of examples of what to expect in this riveting short story collection.
'Immensely Visual' and 'Highly Versatile' are by far the most frequently recurring descriptions of the author's bold style of writing given by early reviewers of 'Impromptu Scribe', his début short story collection.

Fourteen Tiles: Real Stories of Unusual Characters
Real life is often more interesting than any fiction. In many countries and from WWII to the present times, this mosaic follows artists, programmers, scientists, soldiers, musicians, sailors, and Boy Scouts – some plain crazy but many of them unassuming, ordinary people who achieved amazing feats and survived wars or oppressive political systems without losing their sense of humor.
This book (225 pp.) fits several categories: Long stories, literary nonfiction, history, or memoir.
I write because I have a lot to say. I am a retired sea captain, offshore sailor, artist, amateur cellist, beekeeper, licensed trapper, and a co-founder of a major high-tech company. I studied mathematics and engineering (PhD), and was one of the pioneers who figured out how to design silicon chips with a computer – an essential step for the rapid evolution of electronics.
