The other writers ponied up ten bucks each, and Papa claimed the pot with possibly the saddest six words ever written: For sale: baby shoes. Never worn.In this collection, Mario Milosevic offers 41 of his own very short stories. By turns funny, fantastic, witty, fabulous, and poignant, none are as brief as six words, but they all pack a punch and are guaranteed to intrigue, amuse, and move.Mario Milosevics short fiction has appeared in magazines, anthologies, and websites for almost thirty years. His novels include Claypot Dreamstance, The Coma Monologues, and Kyles War. He has also published three collections of poetry: Animal Life, Love Life, and Fantasy Life.

Mario started writing when he was a young teenager. He submitted his first story to a magazine when he was fourteen years old. He didnt sell that one, but he hasnt stopped writing or submitting since. Mario has a particular fondness for short stories, considering them the ideal storytelling medium: short enough to read in one comfortable sitting, but long enough to convey the richness of life. Mario was born in Italy, grew up in Canada, and now lives with his wife, writer Kim Antieau, in the Pacific Northwest of the United States where he has a day job at Green Snake Publishing and where he writes at night, on the weekends, and sometimes in his sleep.
