I have acquired another book of short stories. This one is called "The Miniature Wife" by Manuel Gonzales. I finished a few stories in the last book when I decided to get a new one. The stories in "Vampires in the Lemon Grove" were intriguing and entertaining, but I don't think they are my style. They were also, as far as short stories go, rather lengthy, and I just do not have the time these days to read and really absorb the material. In "The Miniature Wife" however, the stories are really short stories, ranging from about three to ten pages. Not only does that make them more convenient for me, but that's also closer to the length that I write.
