A Collection of Short Contemporary Stories
By: James W. Nelson
Stuff happens every day that could become a short story. You witness a skydive, then imagine what could go wrong. You visit a nursing home and imagine resident interactions. You see a group of cars go by that all look alike and with antennas; obviously they’re in a caravan—what’s happening? You suddenly want a coffee, but something is stopping you, and now you really want one…! These are all things that happen every day. You witness this, you witness that, you add your own imagination of what’s going on and there arises a short story.
A Deal in Wheat And Other Stories
By: Frank
But the madness was upon him none the less, and it rode and roweled him like a hag from dawn to dark and from dark to dawn again, till in his complete loneliness, in the isolation of that simple, primitive life, where no congenial mind relieved the monotony by so much as a word, morbid, hounded, tortured, the man grew desperate--was ready for anything that would solve the situation.

A Modern Cinderella and other stories
By: Louisa May Alcott
To all of which remarks Nan gave her assent; though the hop-pole took the likeness of a tall figure she had seen in the porch, the sage-bed, curiously enough, suggested a strawberry ditto, the lettuce vividly reminded her of certain vegetable productions a basket had brought, and the bob-o-link only sung in his cheeriest voice, "Go home, go home! he is there.
A Mountain Woman and Other Stories
By: Elia W. Peattie
I have married a mountain woman," he wrote. "None of your puny breed of modern femininity, but a remnant left over from the heroic ages, -- a primitive woman, grand and vast of spirit, capable of true and steadfast wifehood. No sophistry about her; no knowledge even that there is sophistry. Heavens! man, do you remember the rondeaux and triolets I used to write to those pretty creatures back East.
A Set of Six
By: Joseph Conrad
These six stories, Conrad says in his introduction, are all based in truth. The stories included are: "Gaspar Ruiz," "The Informer," "The Brute," "An Anarchist," "The Duel," and "Il Conde."
A Short Story Collection
By: Peter Stone
A collection of historical, sci-fi, and other short stories. A mysterious lady in black; medieval peasants go on the rampage; a squire lets down his master; hundreds of a habits orbiting earth are on the brink of war; a young man is mesmerized by a strange girl in a nightclub; and a man flees for his life in post apocalyptic badlands.
A Simple Soul
By: Gustave Flaubert
Like every other woman, she had had an affair of the heart. Her father, who was a mason, was killed by falling from a scaffolding. Then her mother died and her sisters went their different ways; a farmer took her in, and while she was quite small, let her keep cows in the fields. She was clad in miserable rags, beaten for the slightest offence and finally dismissed for a theft of thirty sous which she did not commit.
Aaron Trow
By: Anthony Trollope
And then a day came in which an attempt was made by a large body of convicts, under his leadership, to get the better of the officers of the prison. It is hardly necessary to say that the attempt failed. Such attempts always fail. It failed on this occasion signally, and Trow, with two other men, were condemned to be scourged terribly, and then kept in solitary confinement for some lengthened term of months.
Acts of God
By: K. T. Tyler
A mystery of faith, fear, legend and human frailty. A monumental moment in history is revisited from a fresh though somewhat bizarre perspective. As faith meets fantasy and the two become hopelessly enmeshed, the search for an answer only uncovers more devilish questions
