Soul Stirring: A short story Collection

By Melissa Allor

First, thank you for checking out my short story collection
This collection contains a variety of different genres of fictional short stories that were written between 2020 and 2026. There are thirteen short stories/flash fiction pieces in this collection. Two of my personal favorites include Sliver, The Grass, Insects, and Midnight Guests.

I find Sliver to be such an emotional piece that grabs at your senses from the get-go and holds on until the very end. The Grass bridges the scientific world with magical realism and truly makes me think. Insects was created based off of something that crosses my mind now and then, something that I haven't fully decided how I feel about, but shares my wonder in a unique way. Midnight Guests is meant to be part thriller, part comedy, the comic relief holding out until the very end.

Honorable mentions include Greta and Green Tea. But I'll let you decide what order you'd rank them in. Some are creepy, some are funny, some are wholesome, and many are emotional. Please enjoy them. Read them, and re-read them, as I often do.
