Overview

Five original science fiction & fantasy stories. Short Bits is a rebellious mix of short stories, from high fantasy to urban fantasy and LitRPG, each one exploring worlds where characters refuse to accept their predetermined paths. They're written for readers who believe in forging their own destiny, and published here because stories of defiance deserve to be shared. Short Bits Volume 5 includes five original stories, opening with a futuristic diamond heist in So Long & Thanks for all the Diamonds, while Bug Hunt plunges you back into the world of virtual gaming and a library where books can kill. We switch from science fiction to fantasy with A Country Event and The Polar Bear, two tales of magic in ordinary places, before finishing the volume with The Deli, where knights in a shinning armour mix with nerdy teachers, and the scariest things lurk behind the counter. The author introduces every story, taking you behind-the-scenes and providing insight into the inspiration and writing process behind each one.

Author Information

Physics makes Belinda's brain hurt, while quadratics cause her eyes to cross and any mention of probability equations will have her running for the door. Nonetheless, she loves watching documentaries about the natural world, biology, space, history and technology.She's also a sucker for a fast horse, a faster computer and superhero movies. When she's not doing the horse, computer or superhero thing, Belinda writes science fiction (emphasis on the fiction), where she loves to write about butt-kicking girls (and guys) who blow stuff up.
