Those of you who know me that while I write fantasy fiction, the "fantasies" in question are usually of a completely different sort than those that land in this non-explicit, more or less safe-for-all-ages-on-Wattpad volume. 

I do occasionally write cleanfics. 

I can't usually enter my cleaner stories in contests except as oneshots, however, because most contests require five or more chapters. (Many contests won't even allow oneshots. Novels and novellas are preferred).

Like all authors, I thirst for exposure. Contest entry is one of the few ways a Wattpad indie author can get exposure for their work. 

I therefore present to you this volume of collected shorts. If I ever write drabbles or other short contest-specific entries, they will also find their way in here. 

All the stories in this book have something in common besides the fact that they contain no sexually explicit material:

They are all works of fiction that use fantasies, dreams, visions, and other lies to tell deep truths. In that sense, they are all set in the same world. 

See this, then,  as a sort of "patchwork novel." 

J.D. Salinger specialized in those. Every story he wrote was about the Glass family. Ray Bradbury also specialized in stories that he told in patchwork - stories that had nothing in common at first, maybe not even a single world, but once you finished reading it was clear that you had read a single story rather than a handful of short fictions. I therefore dedicate this mishmash of magical realism, slipstream fiction, portal fantasies, and dream-visions to them.
