A simple plan on Fiction on the web

“A mandolin playing the opening notes of a traditional song, soon joined by a woman’s high, clear voice, could mean only one thing. Alar remembered right, it was market day in Kartok…”

My first published short story was the first story I wrote. It’s about a boy who learns, in the nick of time, what it takes to be a hero. You can find at Fiction on the Web.

Ross Hightower

Somehow, after spending most of his life in the south, Ross Hightower found himself living in Milwaukee with his wife of 34 years and loving it. One cold, snowy day, not too long ago, he woke with a story stuck in his head, and although that wasn’t unusual, what happened next was unprecedented. He wrote it down. That small story grew into his first novel, "Spirit Sight," which he is busily shopping to publishers. His short stories have been published in Fiction on the Web and Sword and Sorcery Magazine.
