Flashes from the Other World
Magic without the hocus pocus, these stories explore the ethereal blur between reality and not, between dream and sleep, between love and other than love. They present relationships with a tender wackiness. Tossed into the mix are mischievous ghosts, who give the talking plants and even the seductive and vocal grains of sand a run for their money. Quirky and offbeat, these stories will touch your heart, although they may tug at your funny bone first.
"With a keen minimalist eye and a knifelike accuracy of just where the edge is, Weinstein is the angry orphaned child of Palahniuk and Octavia Butler. These stories are disturbingly correct, commanding and gorgeous."
~Traci Foust, Nowhere Near Normal
"Readers of Julie Weinstein's Flashes from the Other World will gladly find themselves lifted story by story on a true reading adventure. Her descriptive scenes are that vividly real! Here is an author whose word choice is pure magic. From the paranormal, to relationships, to the surreal, these flash stories will delight readers."
~Salvatore Buttaci, author of Flashing My Shorts
"Julie Ann Weinstein writes in a refreshing, sharp style that is perfectly suited to flash fiction. Her stories are filled with haunting scenarios and wildly funny characters, who are as unpredictable as they are endear-ing. Flashes From the Other World is aptly titled—the stories offer pure escapism in short form."
~Jen Knox, Author of Musical Chairs and To Begin Again
