Tales Out of Time
(2011)(The third book in the Writer on Demand series)
A collection of stories by Donald J Bingle
Time may be many things, but it is definitely not on our side. It always wins, no matter how much we struggle against it.
Writer on Demand Vol. 3: Tales Out of Time includes three stories:
"Standing Still" (approximately 4,600 words) tells the story of one man trying to help another deal with the reality in which he finds himself. The story originally appeared in Time Twisters, edited by Jean Rabe and Martin H. Greenberg (DAW Books, Inc. 2007).
"Knowing She Would" (approximately 3,600 words) tells the story of a girl visited repeatedly by those who need her help in their journeys. The story originally appeared in Historical Hauntings, edited by Jean Rabe and Martin H. Greenberg (DAW Books, Inc. 2000).
"A Passion for Time Travel" (approximately 3,900 words) deals with the problems of a company that sells vacations throughout time. The story originally appeared in TimeShares, edited by Jean Rabe and Martin H. Greenberg (DAW Books, Inc. 2010).
Best known as the world's top-ranked player of classic role-playing games for fifteen years, Donald J. Bingle is an oft-published author in the science fiction, fantasy, horror, thriller, steampunk, romance, and comedy genres. Many of these stories have been written on short deadlines to required specifications of wordcount and topic, making Don a veritable Writer on Demand TM. While some of his stories are electronically available in the themed anthologies in which they first appeared, they are being collected and offered here by genre, with new collections coming out periodically.
Also available in his Writer on Demand series: Vol. 1: Tales of Gamers and Gaming; Vol. 2: Tales of Humorous Horror: Vol. 4: Grim, Fair e-Tales; Vol. 5: Tales of an Altered Past Powered by Romance, Horror, and Steam; Vol. 6: Not-So-Heroic Fantasy; and Vol. 7: Shadow Realities.
