OK, "Waiting" and "The Odd Couple" have been added to Kindlegraph. "Strange Bedfellows" is there already. My Kindlegraph page: http://kindlegraph.com/authors/Q__Kelly
Gonna work on uploading "Waiting" to the e-book sites today/tonight. That means it'll definitely be on Smashwords tonight. It'll take a few days for Kindle and BN.
Here's a link to an excerpt of "The Odd Couple." The excerpt begins...Charlene’s eyes flew open. That voice was real. Right across from her, just yards away, there he was. Her son, her JP. Four years old again and risen somehow from the grave. There was no mistaking him. He had listened to her, and he was back. Charlene went weak with disbelief. Her heart wobbled. This was it, then. This was how she was going to snap and plunge into the valley of the insane. Because JP was dead. The gunshot. The holes. The lifeless eyes. https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&am...
Congrats to the Goodreads giveaway winner. I'll mail the book Monday. Let me know if you prefer ebook.

The collection has seven short stories. The lead story is "Miss Lucy Parker."
"Miss Lucy Parker" Miss Lucy Parker is a prim, proper elderly lady. When a Volkswagen Beetle—the new kind, and pink—PINK!—turns onto the winding road that leads to Lucy's farmhouse, Lucy is sure the car's occupants are lost. And that the car contains hippies, because hippies drive Volkswagen Beetles. Lucy plans to tell the hippies to get lost. She has no need for their odd speech, beads and marijuana aroma. Except hippies are not in the car. A woman is, a woman wearing a short, blood-red dress that hugs her body. Thus begins Lucy Parker's great adventure.
"A Weird Situation" Karen does not believe her boyfriend when he tells her that he turns into a woman for seven hours every day.
"The Interview" The person interviewing Debby has a giant booger. Should she tell him and risk not getting the job?
"First Day at Work" A security guard's first day at a bank has repercussions for him and three workers.
"Every Day" A man struggles every day to follow through on a promise to himself.
"The Doctor" A doctor salivates at the prospect of delivering bad news to a twelve-year-old girl and her mother.
"Guardian Angel" Gabriel fancies himself a guardian angel. But is he really?
