Rainy Day Tales: An anthology of short stories

by Skip Press

Overview

Known internationally to aspiring writers and screenwriters as a coach and friend, Skip Press has had fine success with short stories for 20 years, beginning with his Alexander Cloud character in Espionage magazine. Though Alex later became a teenager in three young adult mystery novels, the adult Alex herein, a psychic James Bond of sorts, will captivate your imagination. Other stories are very different, from the quirky Walking to Hawaii about a man who discovers the diary of Jesus, to the heart-breaking erotic love story Rain Dance. You can explore a bizarre Hollywood character in Pictures, and travel strange paths from innocence with a Texas boy who questions the origins of A Map of Hell. These are stories to get happily lost in on a rainy day, and the author welcomes any and all comments. He can be found via his website, www.skippress.com. Enjoy!
