I changed the title of my upcoming short story collection from Sundown Rising and Other Stories to Odds and Endings: Fiction Short and Otherwise. Why the change? Partly because I’m not done with Sundown Rising and have been “not done” with it for about a year. It will appear later, as either a novella by itself or as part of another collection.

So why Odds and Endings: Fiction Short and Otherwise? I enjoy wordplay. Odds and Ends. Odds and Endings. Get it? Plus, I think (hope?) that it reflects the original, quirky, and sometimes dark stories that you will find therein.

I’m hoping to get Odds and Endings out before the end of the year. In the meantime, please read Mommy’s Favorite for free on Wattpad to get a preview!

From Joe's writing

Melissa Carnegie was livid. She’s been going to Curves for almost a year now, three times a week, and yet she was still a good sixty pounds overweight. But that’s not what she was livid about. She was livid that Nikki Melon, her former best friend, had been working out for a mere ten months and now was a svelte one-thirty-five. Worse yet, she never missed an opportunity to rub Melissa’s face in it.
