Welcome to the grab bag

Welcome to Shortreads by Shortreed. Here's the stuff that you can read and see: Ned and his Achilles-tendon calamity, which I caused. Read the 50 micro-stories on Ned's plight: the Nedisodes . The cryptozoological marvels of Bunguin , all formerly of bunguin.com, until I got too cheap to pay to host things.  See  Exquisite Creatures  for some strange, co-created art based on the drawing game called exquisite corpse . See some more of my art on Instagram . Thank you, kind human.
