Scribomancy (n.): the art of discovering what you meant to write after you’ve already written it.
Some stories behave. Others… don’t.
Flashes of Scribomancy is a collection of short fiction, scripts, and literary experiments exploring the magic and mischief of writing itself.
Within these pages you’ll find haunted woods, ill-advised bargains, ghosts both literal and otherwise, and the quiet, persistent magic of words arranged just well enough to tickle a fancy or two.
But not every piece follows the rules.
Some stories keep to the familiar rhythms of storytelling. Others wander. A few misbehave entirely—bending form, breaking structure, or slipping into something unexpected.
Together, they form a record of a writer learning her craft—one revision, one risk, and one questionable decision at a time.
If you enjoy short story collections with a touch of the strange, the self-aware, and the experimental, this one invites you to turn the page and see what happens next.
