Bits of Household Magic

Unseen Residents is a manuscript I've had on the back burner for a couple of years now.  It's a satirical look at marginalized magical creatures that live in human households.
I've recently begun posting short segments of this work as flash fiction articles.  You can read them here:

Unseen Residents (Flash Fiction)

For House Elves, Life is Cheap (Flash Fiction)

Blame the Victim (Household Elves Flash Fiction)

A Troll's Burden (Flash Fiction)

The Thing in the Closet (Flash Fiction)

The Tooth Fairy (Flash Fiction)

Household Goblins (Flash Fiction)

Minor Gods (Flash Fiction)

Room Witches (Flash Fiction)

Charlie's Gift (Flash Fiction)

His Teacher Was a Ghoul (Flash Fiction)

Math Lessons with a Monster (Flash Fiction)

Bumblebert, the Micro-Gnome (Flash Fiction)

Sentient Wood Mites (Flash Fiction)

I've been receiving such an overwhelmingly positive response to these pieces that I think I may go back and flesh out the full novel.  :)
