Brother of All Brothers

Picture
Written 2002; Published 2004
My first short story written in as a grade 8  English assignment. This was also my first publication thanks to the Tall Tales Press annual short story competition. I won honourable mention in the junior writer's category and the work was then published in an anthology, Tall Tales and Short Stories Vol, II.As far as I am aware the publishing company no longer exists and the anthology out of print.

Somehow I find it  rather fitting that my first publication was arranged through a company in Calgary since that is where I live now and where the arranging of my first novel's publication took place.
