Anomaly Con Denver Review

Free Short Story! (and an update)
I’ve added a short story to the Free Fiction area. The story is called “Runner” and it is something of an origin story on Run from the Renegades series. It was interesting and challenging writing from his perspective, and I hope that you all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Feel free…
