Dean Wesley Smith 
I Heard the Twang of Love and It Hurt My Ears [EPUB ebook] 
Stories from Pulphouse Fiction Magazine

The weird title fits the ten great short stories in this book.

All ten stories come from the pages of Pulphouse Fiction Magazine, so of course the stories fit the title.

That title does not shout romance. It shouts weirdness, a book full of weirdness with maybe just a twang of love.

Stories of science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and combinations of genres fill these pages, all done by top writers of short fiction. And all the stories feature twangs of love, whatever that might be. (You know it when you see it.)
