Once upon a time...a woman wrote a collection of short stories, none of which end particularly well for their characters. This is a mini collection showcasing the diverse skill of Michelle Kilmer (von Eschen) and written for debut at Crypticon Seattle, a horror convention, in 2019. Featuring five short stories of loss detailing how far life is from a fairy tale. Follow a fiery scourge in Firesick, become transfixed by a mysterious, real life painting in The Hands Resist Him, consider what you can and can't live without after an alien invasion in Takers, strap into an advanced future technology in Pain Management, Inc., and take a back seat as a woman takes control of her destiny in The Opportunity.
