One to Get Ready, Three to Go!

This book is a collection of short stories. One story is purely fantasy. The other two are partly fantasy. A person will find romance, horror, and fantasy in all three. The struggle between good and evil on various levels and in varying degrees is dealt within. Forgiveness is given when it is possible. Those who have strayed away from good are brought back. The stories deal with what might happen in a different world or what may be happening in this world without our knowledge. There is humor and pathos in each presentation. The stories deal with real people in real situations and fantasy people in real situations, Mistakes in some instances are due to the author's lack of knowledge. Some of that which appears as mistakes is the author's rearranging of what we know as reality. The author's belief is nothing is impossible. The reader must keep that in mind if he or she is to enjoy the stories. About the Author Alberta Ames is an avid reader. If she is not writing you may find her curled up reading.
