Free SciFi/Fantasy Short Reads (Dec 8–Jan 8)
I don’t know about you, but this time of year I crave bite-sized wonder—stories I can finish with a mug of something warm while the world outside goes quiet. From December 8 through January 8, I’ve teamed up with fellow authors to share a bundle of free sci‑fi and fantasy shorts you can download and enjoy.
Start here: Free Scifi/Fantasy Shorts
Shorts are perfect for airport lines, late-night “one more chapter” promises, and between‑book palate cleansers.
It’s my favorite way to discover new voices without the pressure of a full novel.
The lineup ranges from space opera to cozy fantasy to mythic tales, so you can pick your mood.
From me: The Great Bard Festival

If music-as-magic, festival mischief, and quiet courage are your jam, you’ll find my short, The Great Bard Festival, in the mix—free for the whole event window. Gareth’s honest song just might teach a city how to listen again.
How to grab them
- Download via BookFunnel.
- Device help is available right on the page.
- The giveaway runs Dec 8–Jan 8—then the portal closes.
Grab your favorites, discover a few new voices, and share the link with a friend.
