Lies.

We all tell them–sometimes to keep the peace, other times to stir the pot, occasionally to save face, or just for fun.

In this anthology, co-editor Sahar Abdulaziz and I got members of our local writing group (the Pocono Liars Club) to submit a playful mix of stories where truth takes a back seat and deception takes center stage. From harmless fibs to outrageous whoppers, these tales demonstrate that sometimes lying is an art… and sometimes it’s a disaster waiting to happen.

We then invited a few authors who had spoken to our group before to submit stories as well, so you’ll also read stories from Randee Dawn, Keith R.A. DeCandido, Gregory Frost, Teel James Glenn, Jon McGoran, Alex Shvartsman, Hildy Silverman, and Ian Randal Strock.

Liars Club contributors are Sahar Abdulaziz, John H. Abel, Angel Ackerman, Derek Beebe, Roseann McGrath Brooks, Michael P. Doherty, Heidi Donohue, P.A. Dutchman, Gabrielle Ferrara, Kieran Ferrara, Belinda M. Gordon, Ralph Hieb, Evelyn Infante, Kelly Jensen, Susan Moore Jordan, Michael Karpe, Tristan Robert Lange, Mary Anne Moore, M.C. Ryder, and me!

Go on–get the book. We promise you’ll love it.
