  These stories can be read at parties and gatherings to create a good conversation. People can make comments and have a laugh. Some of the stories are a bit silly but funny with a lot of intelligent humour thrown in for a good mix. Appealing to children and young adults, middle-aged and elderly people so all people can have a laugh, from eight to one hundred and eight all people are included. I hope you all have a laugh and don’t forget to share the laughter with friends. 
  It would be stretching my brain too far to write one hundred stories. I can think of some funny bits I have already written; they make me laugh and they might make you chuckle too. Like the zookeepers who found a job in the Air Force and now dispatches missiles. Or the girl bungee jumping in a dress and G-string, or the streaker who put his clothes back on and left the building. There are the stories about: the astronauts who were left to wander the universe for eternity, the horse who had his stripes painted on like a zebra, the monkey who packed his bags and moved back to Africa and the aliens who survived their crash landing and are walking the Earth today. These are just a few of the stories that make me laugh and there are many more! 
  There are 55 stories, I am sure something will give a giggle, a deep chuckle sprinkled with some hilarious laughs!

  Raw, intense short fiction that “delves into the most complex female territory imaginable and dissects until every honest bone is revealed” (Alissa Nutting, author of Tampa).   From the author of Nine Months and Baby comes a daring new collection that seethes with alienation, lust, and rage. Inside Madeleine takes us from hospitals, halfway houses, and alleyways to boarding schools and Park Avenue penthouses, exploring the complex relationships girls have with their bodies, with other girls, and with boys. The title novella tracks the ins and outs of an outsider’s life: her childhood obesity and kinky sex life, her toxic relationships, whether familial or erotic—and her various disappearing acts, of body and mind.

  Dracula's Guest - Classic Tales...

  Bram Stoker

  This story coincides with April 30, or May Day’s Eve, when it was held that witches met on the Brocken mountain and kept communion with the Devil. It is named after St. Walburga, and English nun who helped convert Germans to Christianity in the 8th century. Her feast day coincides with an ancient pagan festival, whose rites were intended to give protection against witchcraft. Stoker originally wrote this story to be included in his novel, Dracula, but the editor struck it from the original work. Dracula’s Guest was published posthumously, being the title of a collection of short stories of similar gothic horror.
