The Timeworn Apostate: A Short Story for the Ages

I have a new short story available on Amazon. I'm reminded of the Monty Python classic introduction: "And Now for Something Completely Different." This short story is nothing like my prior work but it has already become one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it.

A person can have so much wealth that boredom encourages odd pastimes. John Armstrong buys other people’s dreams, then a chance encounter changes the course of his listless life.

Steve Dancy Short Stories Published


In addition to the seven novel-length Steve Dancy Tales, Amazon now offers two Dancy short stories. "Snake in the Grass" was fun to write because the story is told in third person from Joseph McAllen's point-of-view. (All of the series novels are written in first person from Steve Dancy's point-of-view.)

I hope you enjoy the stories.



Snake in the Grass



A lone wrangler with a fine herd of horses goes berserk in the middle of nowhere. Steve Dancy and Joseph McAllen must decide whether to ride off or help the crazed boy.





Relentless



In a remote wilderness, a band of outlaws chase Steve Dancy. They want his horse. They want his gear. They want his money. And they want his life.
