Romance, Shromance

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, here’s a new story, published by DefiantScribe.

Here’s what the editors say about it:

“… an almost criminally charming story about the hope of a better romance, a better tomorrow, and the simple pleasures of connecting with another person. In an age dominated by cell phones, social media, and various methods of online communication, Romance, Shromance feels like a throwback in the best of ways, reminding us that taking a moment to chat with a stranger can be fulfilling in its own right, and the nostalgia of this simplicity makes the piece all the more enjoyable.”

Another Five-Star Review!

It’s always nice to stumble upon a new review for my book, especially when it’s a five-star gem. Thank you, Kind Reader, for taking the time to jot down your impressions of Breakfast with the Alien and Other Short, Short Stories. I appreciate it very much.

A New Video

A few years ago, I made a modest home-recording of “Blue Christmas” for a friend’s holiday album. This video of the tune goes out to everyone who bought, read, inspired, motivated, advised, left a review for, sent a kind thought about, created art for, voted for, hosted or attended a performance of Breakfast with the Alien in 2017.

THANK YOU. The Alien and I appreciate it. 

Follow the Sun to My House of Shells

Thanks to the good people at DefiantScribe for publishing my flash fiction story “Follow the Sun to My House of Shells.”

Here’s what they say about the story …

“This flash fiction piece by Greg Roensch illustrates that dreamy state between sleeping and being awake and that brief moment where we forget everything that is wrong, that moment where we are suddenly inspired with hope … [It’s] a deeply humorous, entertaining piece that’s as wonderfully loony as it is amusing. The writing itself is polished and charming, and, at just 334 words, it’s the perfect piece for the busier among us.”

An earlier version of this story appears in Breakfast with the Alien and Other Short, Short Stories.
