Short Stories Online
by Ken Sanes
The Observatory
This online story depicts a few moments in the life of a mother
and child who are in a high-rise observatory viewing area
when something happens.
The Survivor
This short story, about the long sweep of history, is smooth
and deeply ironic, with a very strange central character.
Finding Freedom
In this realistic story, a bottlenose dolphin who is like nothing
the world has ever seen before struggles to survive -- and
learns the truth about life. If you
enjoy rooting for sympathetic
characters and reflecting on the meaning of things -- or care
about animal rights -- you will
very likely be moved
by this.
Archetypes Under Attack!
An intellectual fantasy about what happens when a
cosmic virus
attacks the archetypes, or models for everything
in existence,
and the order of the universe falls apart.
Hopefully, readers
will find this short story a lot of fun -- and a little
mind-boggling.
This is another literary fantasy and a work of unconventional
fiction about the depiction of a world where the imagination
comes to life.
Gleeto's Excellent Adventure
A lively science fiction story for teenage readers, although
older readers may also appreciate it.
