About the Book (Excerpts & Info)

This anthology marks the debut of Long Island's Easy Writers, six talented authors who share Long Island, New York as their home. They met through a creative writing workshop at Suffolk County Community College and together they have assembled 32 of their best short stories for readers' entertainment. Coming from the worlds of business, law, medicine, security and the military, they have brought an array of experiences and interests to their works.

These stories expertly show us the world through the eyes of characters as diverse as the authors themselves: troubled teenagers coping with lives that are changing too fast, caring families suffering the loss of a loved one, regretful adults working to overcome their mistakes, not to mention a genie, some ghosts and a psychopath or two. Each story is a new journey along a road that covers tragedy and redemption, cruelty and kindness, love and longing. With ample doses of drama, action, horror, mystery, fantasy and even humor, Long Island's Easy Writers' Short Story Collection-2008 has something for every literary taste.

Deftly constructed at 244 pages, Short Story Collection - 2008 is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the Short Stories (Anthologies) category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Short Story Collection - 2008 meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $13.95 and $22.95, respectively.

Additionally, Short Story Collection - 2008 can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press wholesale online bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/buybooks
