WHY I WROTE “FIREFLIES”

by P.S.Bartlett

“Fireflies” most likely started when I was born. When I make that statement, what I’m really saying is growing up as the youngest of eleven children in a blended family of five half-sisters, two half-brothers and a sister and two brothers by your shared parents, was as much interesting and fun as it could be tragic and confusing. However, this story isn’t about my family, although my experiences of being raised in such a chaotic yet loving atmosphere certainly fed my creative process and gave me tons of material to work with.

I’ve always been fascinated with history as well as the paranormal. I’ve been especially curious about the area where my mother grew up…

Now that “The Clearing” is up and running, I’ve turned my attention to my next work – an anthology of three ghosts stories. It’s two short stories and a novella, with lengths of 7,000, 11,5000 and 25,000 words, respectively. 

You can read any one of them, or all three. I want to get at least 10 sets of eyes on each – and I want criticism, not flattery. 

In acknowledgement of your efforts, you’ll receive a published-grade copy of my book, and the entire team will have their names listed in the front of the book 🙂

So…can anyone help me out?
