Short Bits, Volume 3 – Audio Commentary

Join the Belinda as she takes you on a journey behind the scenes of Short Bits, Volume 3.

In this audio commentary, Belinda shares her thoughts about each of the stories in the collection, including writing and worldbuilding secrets, as well as spoilers.

Short Bits is a collection of messy literary explosions that don't always have a proper ending. They're written for the fun of it and published here because otherwise they'll sit in a drawer, and where's the fun in that?

Short Bits Volume 3 includes five original stories, including ‘Maelstrom’, a short action-packed tale of revenge inspired by the Chinese fantasy genre, while ‘Scholar’ takes you back into the world of virtual gaming where brains are more important than brawn. In ‘The Wind’, you’re transported  to a bloody battlefield and a warrior’s moment of defiance, while ‘Crash’ takes in you the other direction to when a pilot gives in to her demons. The collection ends with ‘SEED’, a short story set in the distant future, where one girl’s desire to win leads her into new and dangerous territory.
