PDF Ebook Corliss and Other Award Winning Stories, by Heather Haven
I’ve always liked short stories, short shorts, and flash fiction. The investment of time is on the briefer side, and often just as rewarding as a novel. I’ve penned a few, myself, and selected my personal favorites, including a couple of flashes. All the selections involve murder, suspense, surprise or chicanery. Some stories have pretty unlikely heroes, such as an English bulldog named Jemma. Some learn and grow, some go to jail, some die, some profit from other people’s villainy. The common thread is their humanness, even the dog’s. I hope you enjoy reading these stories as much as I enjoyed writing them.

About the Author After studying drama at the University of Miami in Miami, Florida, Heather went to Manhattan to pursue a career. There she wrote short stories, novels, comedy acts, television treatments, ad copy, commercials, and two one-act plays, produced at several places, such as Playwrights Horizon. Once she even ghostwrote a book on how to run an employment agency. She was unemployed at the time. One of her first paying jobs was writing a love story for a book published by Bantam called Moments of Love. She had a deadline of one week but promptly came down with the flu. Heather wrote "The Sands of Time" with a raging temperature, and delivered some pretty hot stuff because of it. Her stint at New York City’s No Soap Radio - where she wrote comedic ad copy – help develop her long-time love affair with comedy. So far, she has written four novels in the humorous Alvarez Family Murder Mystery series. The first, Murder is a Family Business, was winner of the Single Titles Reviewers’ Choice Award 2011. The second, A Wedding to Die For, received the finalist nods from both Global and EPIC’s Best eBook Mystery of the Year, 2012. The third of the series, Death Runs in the Family, received the Gold for Best Mystery Fiction 2013. The fourth book, Dead…If Only, was released October 13, 2014. Books one and two of the Persephone Cole Vintage Mysteries,, The Dagger Before Me, Iced Diamonds, and the soon-to-be-released The Chocolate Kiss-Off are centered around one of Manhattan’s first female detectives (Sam Spade with lipstick) during WWII. Death of a Clown, winner of the Silver IPPY for Best Mystery/thriller 2014, is a standalone mystery noir, which takes place during the golden age of circus life of the forties.

Goldberg Heather Haven is renowned for her mysteries, so rich in character, setting, snappy dialogue, and deliciously arch humor. Now we get to meet Heather as a short story writer, and it is a delightful meeting. This is truly a box of confections. Each story is a delicious surprise, from the flash fiction to the more developed works. I can only wish it were longer, and happily hope for more to come.

Instantly drawn into another time and place By Kemberlee Lugo Shortland I picked up this book because I'm such a fan of Heather Haven's Alvarez Mysteries, and this story was labeled 'A Short Humorous Suspense Story.' I was just going to take a brief look before bed and ended up staying up until I'd finished. This story is a far cry from the Alvarez Mysteries. And I wouldn't call any of it humorous. This is as serious as it comes.The voice in this story is unique and distinct. I was instantly drawn into another time and place. Another culture. Corliss is a product of her social class, a woman who's had a mix of lucks in her life. But she's smart and learns to stand on her own two feet, even if it means sacrifices. This is as much a tale of love as redemption. This is a tale well-told tale with understanding and empathy. A must read!

I still have a collection of short stories from grammar school that is tattered and torn from rereading. Corliss struck me the same way. To so quickly get inside a character to the point where you think you could recognize him or her on the street, live a vignette or longer in the life of that character, and have that character stay with you to the point where you want to know more is a magical talent. Heather Haven has given me another book to reread until it's tattered and torn.I love the Alvarez mysteries, but these stories have a charm that even wild, sophisticated, glamorous Lee Alvarez can't duplicate (I can't even picture Corliss ever owning a pair of high heels.)Thanks, Heather, keep them coming!
