Table of Contents for Elements

I’ve always enjoyed learning how authors create the stories they publish, and I’m not alone. It’s no surprise that the most popular question authors hear is, “Where do you get your ideas?”

To answer that question in my own way, I’ve added extra content here on the blog as a bonus for my readers.

Elements  contains 21 short stories — 14 reprints and 7 new to the collection.

Suzanne Church is a bright new star on the speculative-fiction horizon. I’m very excited to see this mesmerizing collection, which shows the fabulous range of Suzanne’s talent and includes ‘The Tear Closet,’ one of my favorite stories in recent years.

—David Morrell, New York Times bestselling author of Murder as a Fine Art

Alien world after different setting, and in all of them, you are right there, up close and personal. Feeling, understanding . . .

This is not just another collection of stories! Yes, there’s an Aurora award-winner here, but every last tale in this book is a powerful glimpse of a reality very different from our own. Some of these glimpses are dark, some wry—but all of them are rides both unforgettable and worth taking.

You’ll read some of them many times. I guarantee it.

These stories grab hold tight, and hang on for dear life. And beyond.

—Ed Greenwood, New York Times bestselling creator of The Forgotten Realms®
