More new fiction is up on the site. Actually, it’s old fiction, but I’m free to post them online now, so I have.

The first is a story by Emily Chesley, the long-overlooked speculative fiction writer who lived in London, Ontario at the turn of the last century. Her classic novel is based on this short, called, “The Afrikaners of East Nissouri”.

And I’ve posted a flash fiction (that means it’s 500 words or less) that has been published a couple of times, first in Trunk Stories, and then as a reprint in Broken Pencil: “The Monkey’s Tail, as Told by Marcel Duchamp the Day After Charles Lindbergh Landed at Le Bourget Field”

I haven’t put up any new fiction on the site for a while, but you can always find something strange (and made-up) at The Skwib. This week, it’s Jesussic Park, in which I imagine what the Sermon on the Mount might have sounded like if there had been raptors there (and a T-Rex).

I got the idea after hearing about a new Creationist “museum” on the CBC; and it was when one of the “curators” discussed how man once co-existed with the dinosaurs (before the Flood) that it all sort of evolved in my mind.
