I’m a little bit late on this news, but my children’s short story The Wasps is no longer an Amazon exclusive. It’s now also available on Smashwords, Nook and Kobo. It will soon be available in the Apple store as well.
The premise of the story is that there has been an apocalypse that has forced humans to live underwater because of the swarms of insects that dominate the land. Occasionally, they venture out at night to seek supplies, and during one of these journeys a boy loses his father’s gift. He must brave the swarms during the day in order to find it.
This story is based on a real location, near where I used to live. The river, the lake, and the hospital are all places I used to see whenever I went walking along the South Perth foreshore.
