The longest single author short-story collection in publishing history is now available as an ebook! In fact it is available as two. Ebooks, because it comes in two different editions, male and female, that differ in 10% of their contents. This is a trick that I picked up from Milorad Pavić, whose Dictionary of the Khazars. Also comes in male and female editions. The differences are surely there but also insignificant. In the meantime here is the collection for the Kindle. THE MILLION WORD STORYBOOK.

Rhys Hughes: eBooks
http://rhyshughes.blogspot.com/p/ebooks.html
I have many ebooks available. The best way to purchase them is to check out the relevant pages devoted to my work on Amazon. I am proud of all of them but I am especially pleased with the following three:. The Sticky Situations of Zwicky Fingers. That's just one of the mysteries you may or may not encounter when you join Zwicky on this decathlon of Calvinoesque whimsies! Like Beckett on nitrous oxide. Like Kafka with a brighter sense of humor.". And here are just a few more:. The adventures of an excepti...

Have set up my own small press. This is something I have been planning to do for a long time. It has a name:. And it has a mandate: to publish my own works (of course) but also a few writers who have gone out of print, or foreign writers who haven't yet been adequately translated into English. I have the rights to issue the first ever low cost edition of the 1950 cult classic. The Exploits of Engelbrecht. Here is the logo, painted for me by. So far it has published three books by Yours Truly, including:.

The square root of minus one is an imaginary number, but it can't be imagined by the human mind. Yet it exists and has great power! My ambition is to become an official member of OuLiPo. My favourite writer, Italo Calvino, was a member of OuLiPo. Too many to mention really. I am a fan of what is unsatisfactorily referred to as 'World Music'. I especially like music from Brazil and India. I also like jazz, ambient, classical and some avant-garde rock. I am a big fan of the ' Canterbury Scene. I have been ...

2010 A camp fire on the dunes near the sea with a bottle of wine and a fine woman (she took the photo so isn't in it! What better way of life is there? This photo was taken near Porthcawl, the town where I grew up; it was the first time I had been back to my old haunts for many years. Porthcawl is where I started writing and I have set plenty of stories there. To give the photo some literary context: my fourth novel,. Had just been published, and I had recently finished writing my sixth,. Northern Spain,...

Rhys Hughes: About
http://rhyshughes.blogspot.com/p/about.html
I am a writer of Fantasy and Magic Realism who often uses comedy and absurdism to examine philosophical issues. I am known for my original ideas, intricate plots and entertaining wordplay! I write short stories, novellas and novels. To a lesser extent I write poetry and non-fiction. I sometimes say that writing is the only thing I'm good at. I try to make that sound like a joke, but I don't think it is. I really am mediocre at most things, but my passion for writing keeps growing stronger!

A Few Short Stories featuring Hogwash and Bum Note. 1) The Porcelain Pig. Did I ever tell you the tale of the two explorers who discovered a gigantic porcelain pig in the jungles of Yuckystan? They climbed to the top of it and had an adventure that turned into a riddle. I don’t think I did tell you about this, partly because I’ve never met you before; and also because I’m making it up as I go along. Making it up off the top of my head! 8220;Tell them about Wearyland too, won’t you? So The two explorers i...

http://rhyshughes.blogspot.com/p/tales.html
Although I started writing short stories in 1981 all those early works are lost. My earliest surviving story dates from 1989. I plan to write exactly 1000 stories. There follows a complete list of every story I have written for this scheme so far. All 813 of them. As the list grows, I'll edit this blog entry to keep up! Many of the story titles are active links; if you click on them you'll discover which of my books those stories first. Towards a New Arcana. Interview with the City Treasurer. The Man Who...

PANDORA'S BLUFF and THE IRRESPONSIBILIAD. I recently decided that the title for the 1000 story cycle I have been working on for the past twenty years shall be Pandora's Bluff. I have also decided on an overarching title for the series of historical novels I plan to begin writing when I turn 50, if I live that long, of course! The title is The Irresponsibiliad. I say a 'series of historical novels' but in fact the idea is to write just one vast novel - the longest novel ever written! And will be set in An...
