My 10 Favorite Short Stories of 2012

It was another good year for short stories in 2012. It is great this format has made a comeback. The time investment is minimal, yet the entertainment factor is high.  Here are 10 short stories that I really enjoyed for various reasons. I hope you might take the time to give them a read, check out the websites they were published on. If you dig them, maybe visit them in the future, and if the fancy strikes you, submit your own story(s) to them. I huge thank you to the authors for entertaining me so much!

  1. Haven't read any of these. Sounds like I've got some good reading ahead of me.

  2. Sean, thank you so much. I believe I owe you a drink. You name it.

    I've read a couple of these. Bookmarked this so I can make my way through the rest on Christmas -- an excellent way to celebrate, if I do say so myself. :)

  3. Thanks so much for the round up. I'll follow R.S. Bohn's lead and bookmark it for a slightly less crazy time.

    Merry Christmas to the Reardon clan!
