Author Description

Scantic Books is proud to present John Sheirer's new collection of flash fiction. These eighty-three stories range for a few lines to a thousand words, and each one of them leaves readers wanting more. "How could I not love Too Wild, the new collection by John Sheirer? He aims exceptionally high and hits the target far more often than not. These tiny stories are evocative, illuminating, consummately entertaining, and fully realized. And Sheirer's extended pieces are as successful as his cleverly compressed works." -- Michael C. Keith, author of Stories in the Key of Me and Let Us Now Speak of Extinction. "Too Wild is absolutely amazing work. Incredibly beautiful, witty, and somber. Some of these stories would have made me cry had I not been in a public setting." -- Cavin Bryce Gonzalez, Editor, Back Patio Press. "John Sheirer's Too Wild is a wonderful collection of vignettes and flashes, some sad, some humorous, and some purely observational. All together, these tiny slices of life will make you notice the miraculous hidden in the mundane. Bravo!" -- Howard Odentz, best-selling author of The Dead (a Lot) series.
