In a parent-teacher meeting, not going so well, sometimes actions speak louder than words. Why has this mother's happy-go-lucky son's behavior changed since joining his father on late-night fishing trips? While playing hide-and-seek with his cruel siblings a child discovers there are worse things than being found. Relentless tormentors are following this poor man everywhere, and it's enough to drive anyone insane. Learn the Monster Rules with a young boy who's certain he's safe in bed despite the strange, scratching noises that sure do sound like monsters. Why are these two horrifically injured, foreign-sounding women so desperate to reach the other side of the freeway? Time travel with an historical PhD researcher as she jumps into her ancestors' 1897-timeline and discovers a two-hundred-year-old family secret. How does a considerate husband disappear into the night, in the middle of the city, while fetching the couple's car, leaving his confused wife stranded? When humanity hits the carbon/oxygen exchange, Desson Tipping Point, all seems doomed, until they arrive, and now a mother faces a heart-breaking decision. An American blogger on the trip of a lifetime into the Australian outback comes prepared for all things creepy-crawly and dangerous, except for one type of Aussie fauna for which nobody had warned him. And in the short story which inspired the novel Back Again, walk in the shoes of a mother whose son is taken in a tragic accident. Her grief overwhelms her until she finds herself back again reliving that terrible day but with the hope she can now avert the disaster. Except now, she faces one obstacle... fate doesn't want to be changed. From International award-winning short story writer and novelist, comes bite-sized tales to keep you reading just one more, as you're captivated by the clever twists and fascinating characters. Enjoy each story's Imagination Vault, with insights into its inspiration, as revealed by Susan May.

By Susan May
xI was four when I decided I would be a writer, packed a bag, and marched down the road looking for a school. But for forty-six years, I suffered from life-gets-in-the-way-osis. Setting a goal to write just one page a day cured me in 2010. This discipline grew into an addictive habit that has since borne several novels, and dozens of short stories and novellas--many of which are published award-winners in Australia, the US and the UK. My childhood reading diet consisted of Edgar Allen Poe, O'Henry, and Alfred Hitchcock Presents, plus horror comics like Tales From the Crypt. Anything out of this world like The Twilight Zone and Outer Limits had me glued to the television. Inspired by these classics, I attempt to pen tales that are simply about the story and the characters and not about fancy words or beautiful descriptions. At the end of my stories I hope, wonderful reader, that you will feel you've enjoyed a journey into the fantastic with a neat twist at the end. Most days I'm just an average mother and wife living in Perth, Western Australia, but this darn imagination of mine keeps constantly venturing into the crevices of dark worlds, whether I want to go there or not. All my books are exclusively with Amazon, so Kindle Prime and Kindle Unlimited customers can read for free.
