And Stuff
This is where I post the fun stuff–free reads, giveaways, book trailers and anything else which might be hard to classify. Right now it consists of the first two in a series of short story videos called Ward Theater, free reads of fiction, nonfiction and a little of the in-between (including the infamous “A Turkey to Remember”). More importantly, I’ve provided links to two stories by my late, great writing partner, Teri Smith. Enjoy!
