language
( April 21, 2012)
Note: All but one of these stories is available elsewhere for free elsewhere in ebook format. Both the ebook and print version of this book has each of the book covers included in full color (if your device supports color).
"1000 Words" is a collection of ten short stories, each approximately one thousand words in length. They range from science fiction and fantasy, to adventure and horror. Each short story is accompanied by its own book cover. Each of the stories are available for free elsewhere, but here they have been collected into one volume. This was a capstone project meant to merge photographic illustration with creative writing.
