  In this erotic forest fantasy we find ourselves acquainted with Wisteria, a beautiful if somewhat naïve orphan, forced to live with her domineering grandmother - the all-knowing Forest Witch. When our sweet young heroine falls deeply in love with a boy from a nearby village of elves, granny does everything in her power to stop him from taking the young girl’s virginity. With hormones raging, will Wisteria escape the clutches of her wicked guardian? And if so, how will she react to the ecstasy of the sacred rights of hymen? 
  This erotic short story from Erin Pim contains highly sexualised language and graphically descriptive passages of an adult nature. It is therefore intended solely for a mature, open-minded audience.

  From A. J. Payler, master of modern fiction behind Bank Error in Your Favor, The Killing Song, and Terror Next Door comes Should the World Fail to Fall Apart—six stories of people pushed beyond forgiveness in a world without pity, personal struggle against overwhelming odds, & the resilience that resides at the center of the human heart. 
   Featuring: "An Abyss Below Every Floor": Years of research… decades of study… and it’s all led up to this. But even with the eyes of the world upon him and the backing of the world’s most powerful billionaire, he never could have predicted the horrific truth that lies at the heart of everything.

  "Buried, Frozen": The only thing that made those seemingly unending days in prison bearable was knowing what was waiting for him on the outside… but he never could have imagined what he’d find waiting for him, cold and dark at the bottom of that hole. 
  "Dry Eye Syndrome": Midland City's resident superhero can fight off his nemeses all day and night... but his ultimate vulnerability might be his all too human heart. 
   Also featuring "You Are the Protagonist" (as seen in Flash in a Flash) and the original comic book script version of "Dry Eye Syndrome"!

  Virginia Woolf

  Adeline Virginia Woolf was born on the 25th January 1882 in South Kensington in London. 
  Although lauded as a founder of modernist writing with such classics as ‘Orlando’, ‘Mrs Dalloway’ and ‘To the Lighthouse’ and, of course, many classic short stories, her background is filled with elements of tragedy that she somehow overcame to become such a revered writer.   Her mother died when she was 13, her half-sister Stella two years later and with it her first of several nervous breakdowns.  Appallingly it was later found that three of her half-brothers had sexually abused her so darkness must have seemed ever present.   
  She began writing professionally at age 20 but her father’s death two years later brought a complete mental collapse and she was briefly institutionalised.  Somehow she found within herself a literary career and with it great innovations in writing; she was a pioneer of “stream of consciousness”.    
  Her tight circle of friends were the founders of the Bloomsbury Group, a movement whose legacy still influences across the arts and society in many way to this day.   
  Whilst the dark periods continued to interrupt her emotional state her rate of work never ceased.  Until, on 28th March 1941, Woolf put on her overcoat, filled up its pockets with stones, and walked into the River Ouse, in Lewes, East Sussex and drowned herself.  Her body was not recovered until the 18th April.  She was 59. 
  She left behind a note which read in part “Dearest, I feel certain that I am going mad again.  I feel we can't go through another of those terrible times.  And I shan't recover this time.  I begin to hear voices, and I can't concentrate.  So I am doing what seems the best thing to do”.
