[New Release] Read “The Message” at Bewildering Stories

Hi everyone,

I’m excited to announce my latest short story entitled The Message is available for you to read online at Bewildering Stories. The Message is a work of flash fiction with a dystopian science fiction theme.

The reason why this story is called The Message, is because there’s a hidden communication to the reader embedded in the work. On the surface, it seems innocuous, but is it really? Find out!

After you read my story, I invite you to check out the other fine works in Bewildering Stories, Issue 421.

Thanks everyone!
