Ether Books Publish Three Short Stories In One Day

Thursday, 16 December 2010


Ether Books published three of my short stories to their iPhone/iPad based eReader platform yesterday : She'd Always Loved To Travel, Seek Alternative Route and Live from the Continuing Explosion.



She'd Always Loved To Travel and Alternative Route are mainstream "literary" fiction, while Continuing Explosion is SF. This is the first ever appearance of She'd Always Loved To Travel. I see they're publicizing Continuing Explosion as "A Sci-Fi, Contemporary and Feel Good Fiction story". The "feel good" surprises me a little but I guess I see what they mean!



Anyways, if you fancy a read, Continuing Explosion and Alternative Route are available for the princely sum of 59p, while She'd Always Loved to Travel is currently a free download. The Ether App itself is also free, avalable here.

    Thanks Madeleine!

    Words Crafter,

    Oh no! I downloaded it to my wife's iPhone and it worked very sweetly. I'm sure Ether would help you if you asked.
