My first fiction work, published by Abbott ePublishing

I'm proud to announce the publication of my first fiction book with Abbott ePublishing, Short Journeys: Flash Fiction by Stephen Abbott.

Short Journeys is a collection of flash fiction stories featuring strange abilities, and how the protagonists deal with them, stories of the paranormal and otherworldly, time travel, and (a favorite subject of this author) people who can live for an extraordinarily long time.

You’ll also be treated to a mystery for you to solve and more than a few that plumb the depths of human terror.

Most of these 18 works are “Flash Fiction” stories, here defined as constituting stories of either exactly 500 or 750 words in length.

But as a bonus, a short-short story of mine, The Cell, is included an appendix. It is a bit longer than the others, and is set to be adapted into an upcoming short novel I'm writing.

The eBook is being offered for the rather incredible introductory low price of $2.49, and is available in Adobe .pdf and Mobipocket editions. It's Kindle-ready, readable on most handheld devices.

Daniel Hannan’s Public Speeches available from Abbott ePublishing


Abbott ePublishing is proud to announce the publication today of “Speeches of Daniel Hannan, MEP.”

For any fiscal conservative, in any country, this eBook is a MUST HAVE collection of 51 of this 37-year-old's speeches in the European Parliament since 2005.

On March 24, 2009, surrounded by hostile fellow European Parliamentarians, Daniel Hannan made a heroic, articulate speech in which he confronted British Prime Minister Gordon Brown over his reckless spending and damaging economic policies, has become legendary.

He called Brown (with Brown in the room) “the devalued Prime Minister of a devalued Government," something many of his countrymen had been itching to say for months.

Literally overnight, Daniel Hannan, a little-known member of the European Union Parliament from the South East England district has become a conservative icon throughout the world. A YouTube video of his speech became the most watched political video in history on the video-sharing site (over 1.41 million as of Friday, March 27.)

But most people don't know that EVERY TIME he speaks, he stands up forcefully for universal conservative principles of free markets, individual freedom, smaller and more sustainable governments, free elections and self-determination.

Abbott ePublishing is offering this exciting collection for a remarkably low price, to spread the word about this incredible public servant and his timely message.

Price: US $2.49 / 1.74 GBP (approx.)

Offered in Adobe .pdf and Mobipocket editions. Kindle-ready, readable on most handheld devices.
