Short Stories by J. McDougald

This section is obviously under construction. I'm not really sure what will end up here as the stuff I write I'll be trying to sell... meh. Something will end up here sooner or later. What you'll find on these hypothetical pages is the first page or so as a teaser, then the rest in a .doc file you can just download and read / print at your leisure.

 

Rover's Vengeance
- 15 pages. A dog is mutated by cosmic rays and becomes super-intelligent, then goes to prison for "fixing" the Veterinarian that "fixed" him. It's kind of like Shawshank Redemption.

Kill Muffin
- 9 pages. Your doctors been telling you for years that those donuts will kill you. He never warned you about the muffins...

Bobo takes down the Man
- 11 pages. Bobo's back and he's badder than ever. Picks up right where "Bobo goes to Bridgeport" left off. Will Bobo ever catch up to the sinister forces that tried to kill him with a clown-car bomb? It's a desperate race against time where the only thing he knows for sure is that nothing is what it seems.

"Infinity" and other boring words.
- 28 pages. Set in a Lovecraftian universe, a young man goes for a walk in an ancient wood and comes face to face with something that may or may not be evil. Eventually, after about 7000 needless words.

 

What others are saying about the magnificent work of J. McDougald:

- Bob Jacobsen

"Absolutely breathtaking. Before reading [Bobo takes down the Man] I had no idea that the Professional Basket Weavers Association could be so closely linked to the assassination of JFK..."

- Akbar Smith

"You'll keep turning the pages all the way to the end."

- Steve Markus

"A modern masterpiece, if you haven't read "Infinity..." I feel bad for you. And kind of embarrassed."

- Bill Bozzisi

"I did... ...enjoy Infinity."

- Richard Munch
