My newest short story collection is out – Amazingly Even Yet Still More Pings and Pongs! Like in all my collections, each of the stories was previously sold and published, and then I collect them together in my “Pings and Pongs” series. Here’s the back cover, which describes each story. (Check back tomorrow – I plan on posting, “My Short Story Writing System.”)
“Here are 25 more stories from the Insane Mind of Larry Hodges … A rat in her cubicle hates her job – a million years from now … Can Mad Molly get a cake to Rome before DC gets nuked? … Who are those people screaming prayers in an alien’s head? … An alien invasion from a cat’s point of view … What if mathematicians completely took over baseball? … Snake-like aliens arrive and give us one hour to vacate Earth … A small, pathetic dragon is determined to back his gold … Everyone in the world is suddenly turned into frogs … After searching the galaxy for the Holy Grail, Galahad Returns … A knight and his flying unicorn steed take on a dragon … An autistic music-loving killer whale ghost haunts a cemetery … The universe literally does revolve around this teenaged girl … A paranoid hermit crab vows vengeance on the world … The thoughts of an AI as it guides a nuclear bomb to a city … A woman breaking glass ceiling in the field of world domination … A human writer and an AI go head-to-head trying to sell a story … And more!”
