Author’s unpublished stories can stack up like old magazines molding away on a closet shelf. Many should be thrown out as unworthy of publication. However, a few stories were never published because they were weird, whacky, or gross. After all, as authors we like to think of ourselves as writers of classic literature and are fearful that goofy stories might cast a shadow on our reputations. At the risk of casting that dreaded shadow, I’m publishing "Weird, Wacky, & Gross." I hope you find them entertaining in spite of, or because of, their weirdness.
