Almost Anything

Om Almost Anything

A collection of obscure, weird, offensive, gross and twisted short stories! Matt Shaw put a listing up in his store asking people to challenge him. The idea was, they paid a small fee and gave him a single word. He then had to write a story based upon that word. Why? He wanted to test his imagination and put his brain into overdrive, trying to think of stories based on obscure suggestions which he didn't control. Now some of the suggestions that came through were fairly "normal" and expected but, in those cases, he tried to do something unexpected. We really cannot go into more about that without ruining the surprise for some of the stories but, we are sure you will see what we mean when you get to reading. Essentially he took their word and twisted it. Don't worry, it's not cheating though. The word still figures in the story and is the basis of the story, he just looked at it in a different way is all. Before each story is the name of the person who brought the suggestion to him. He has then given a little introduction to each story and then that leads directly to the short itself. There are some sad stories, some disgusting ones, weird ones, funny ones... Basically this book is a mixed bag when it comes to its genre but, as a result, we think this book is probably the closest you can get to actually seeing his true, weird personality shining through. Or should that be, his personalities?
