I'm increasingly flattered by the comments regarding "Liberation at 50 Paces" packing a wallop within such tight confines.

"I love short stories since they are bite sized morsels of literature that I can fit into my busy schedule. This short story was a great read which managed to pack a lot of depth in without coming across as wordy or an exercise of sesquipedalian microscopic description of minutia while detracting from the larger story like so many tend to. While some of the transitions were a bit sudden, you really get drawn into the character. Without creating a spoiler I'll say that I was hoping that the story would have ended closer to Liberation, but I guess that means I'll just have to wait until the next installment of this series comes out."

Thanks a bunch, Hank! 


Yes, It can be difficult to pack a punch within the limited perimeters that the novelette structure demands; and most oft, enticing descriptions are abandoned for brevity. Solid outlining, a deep-rooted connection with your characters, and puissant conflict can empower any tale with the necessitous tools needed to leap from the pages. Utilizing a lush narrative and details that provoke the senses will lend an irresistible strength to every sentence, keeping the reader wanting more of the escapism you as the author provide.
