About this listen

 Consider for a moment 55 words. It's an absurdly tiny number. It's what O. Henry might have conjured up if he'd only had the back of a business card to write upon. You'll find murder and suspense, horror and intrigue, love and betrayal, plus distant worlds and inner demons. All in a measly 55 words.©1998, 1995 Steve Moss (P)1998 Listen & Live Audio, Inc.

Critic reviews

"Irresistible." (Sue Grafton)
"After hearing this collection, listeners may well be inspired to try their own hand at composing such a piece...Let's hope a second volume of these tiny gems will not be long in coming." ( Billboard)
