If you’ve been looking for science fiction and fantasy short stories, you’ve maybe come to the right place. For I intend this to not be an ordinary blog, like most of the ones you’re used to. Here, I’ll be posting short stories that I’ve written in different times of the past, under different influences, and in different moods. Why the “maybe” in the sentence? Because I’m nowhere near a professional writer. And yet, I might be the only amateur writer, who’ve won an award, but it was not for science fiction or fantasy–so this is the first part of warning.
You might like what you’ll read. If you do, feel free to leave a comment saying so. If you don’t like my stories, don’t hesitate to say so, either. Just don’t expect me to defend angrily my works. I’m well aware that they’re not the best there is, otherwise they would have been published and I would have become a professional writer long ago. Besides, I like my stories, and I live with the knowledge that there will always be at least one satisfied customer–even if it’s the seller himself. In any case, I’ll be glad to read your comments, and you can be sure that I’ll reply to them when I have the time.
The second part of the warning is that English is not my mother tongue. There will be short stories here, that I’ve written in my own language, which is Bulgarian. If you don’t know it, you won’t be able to read it. I might translate them in English at a later point, but that depends mostly on my free time. It’s much less time consuming just to find the stories, beat the dust out of them a bit, and publish them here. I even found some stories that were actually written on paper, imagine that. I’ll have to type them one day.
A few words about the legal stuff. All the stories on this blog belong to me. You may not publish or copy them elsewhere, without my explicit consent. If you like them so much, drop me a line, and we can think of something. Or even better, write something of your own. Don’t copy–create!
Well, this is it for now. It turned out just a tad longer than I thought, so let’s just consider it my About page, shall we? I’ll soon post the first of my short stories, so stay tuned.
Sincerely yours,
El Volgero
