Great Review for Hellebore and Rue – and – a Contest About the Book

I just read another great review for Hellebore and Rue over at FanGirlTastic.

I’m tickled.

Reviewer Gayle Grazen had many nice things to say, but of course I’m partial to her words about my story, Sky Lit Bargains:

 

Kelly A. Harmon’s “Sky Lit Bargains” is an enjoyable adventure fantasy tale in which a young woman becomes the warrior in a male-dominated world to avoid a highly unpleasant marital prospect. This could have quite easily been part of a longer work.

This is the second reviewer who’s mentioned that the story could be a longer work. Now I’m wondering if I shouldn’t write it into a novel…?

If you’re read the short story, I’d love your opinion. Drop me a line (or mention in the comments below):

  1. Let it stand!
  2. Write a novel!

(Inquiring minds want to know!)
