ONCE BELLE & Several Short Stories. Emeka Okpara

Having written these poems and short stories over a period of 5 years, after publication of my first novel, HIDDEN HALOES, I've had these short stories and poems on my laptop, not having a particular plan for them. My wife saw them recently and she couldn't stop giggling as she read them. Then, she asked me "When are you going to publish these?"That was when I realized he could be holding on to someone's giggle unjustifiably. ONCE BELLE & Several Short Stories is a freestyle collection of poems and short stories to make you giggle and think. It is a serving of literary sumptuousness to be consumed in one sitting, or if you're like me, bit by bit and over and over.
