A well written short story by Eric Wilder

Todays google alert on the term 'short story' threw up a wonderful short story by Eric Wilder called 'Downthrown side of the fault'.

Eric Wilder has a fluid, easy to read writing style and the story pulls the reader in nicely.

I have to confess that I'm surprised that my short story google alert hasn't produced more actual short stories over the last few weeks of the alert. Most of the blog entries have seemed to be reviews of short stories in paper published books.

I've been toying with the idea of setting up a blog to replace my collected links to other author's online short stories and to complement my own personal list of short stories and online novels.

I was just on the verge of cancelling the alert when Eric Wilder's short story popped up.

Maybe I'll keep the alert going a little longer and see if there are any more good short stories that surface.

Bye for now
