Someone cleverly decided this was the perfect day to celebrate short fiction, and I couldn&#8217;t agree more!</p>
<p>As someone who&#8217;s always juggling multiple projects &#8211; from writing my steampunk mysteries to helping fellow authors through Southern Dragon Publishing &#8211; I appreciate stories I can finish in one sitting.</p>
