So, after long, detailed discussions, consisting of two or three whole sentences, with a couple of people, I’ve decided to handle the problem of printing my short fiction (all one of them) in the near term. Essentially, everyone (including me) agrees that there is no way that the base price that Amazon requires me to charge could possibly be justified unless I have a lot more to offer. So, no print versions of the short fiction until said fiction is significantly far less short.

I have no intention of spending a lot of time working on any such stories until after I get the prequel novel out, which is, as usual, running behind schedule. Mostly because I have several “dramatic’ plot lines I need to finalize and they’re not the fun humorous bits I like writing. But (adulting warning) they still need to be completed.

That said, I had a scene flash into my head today that would make an interesting (or so I think) short story for later on. And there’s always the sequel to Twice Told Thomas, currently called Thrice Told Thomas because, hey, why not? So maybe next year I’ll have enough to gather together and we’ll see what happens.
