Now On The Supernatural Underground: “Bird Of Passage” Part 2—Swinging Into 2015 With Story
Last month, I kicked into the new year with fiction, posting Part 1 of the short story Bird Of Passage on the Supernatural Underground.

So I will comment here. You kinda remind me of Kate Elliott…another epic fantasist who is not primarily known for her short fiction, even though she DOES write it. As you have done here.
Re the Supe & comments, we are trying to fix it, but meanwhile this works as a back-up option.
Paul, being likened to Kate Elliott in any respect at all is a great accolade: thank you.
Good story with a very unexpected ending. Thanks.
Sometimes stories take even their author in unexpected directions. 😉 I’m glad you enjoyed it, June.
Thanks for posting the story. I really liked its bittersweet might-have-been feel, which can sometimes be more romantic than actual romance.
Thank you for the positive feedback, Stephanie.
