More Things I Could Get out of My Mind William Mangieri

A collection of six more short, speculative fictions by William Mangieri, in which we learn some more life lessons: Human isn?t that easy to define. Those voices in your head can be a good thing. Be sure you know what?s ?yours? is before you demand it. Think you?re crazy? Call the Help Desk. Sometimes sacrifices must be made Some games you just can?t win. Includes the short stories: Sasqwhat? It was bad enough that people treated Ben like a freak - now he?s seen something even bigger and hairier than he is hiding in the Arkansas woods, and he needs to find it to prove that he?s no crazier than anyone else. Sometimes, you don?t know what you?re made of until it?s staring you in the face? The View From Up Here Faced by life-altering news, a man stands on the edge of the abyss, looks out over his life, and ponders his future. Talking to yourself can be something quite different when you?re possessed of two minds. Inheritance When Amun discovers that his family is connected to power, wealth and infamy, he enlists a friend to help him get his share. But does he really want the ancient inheritance that?s coming to him? The Human Interface Customer support can be Heaven, but most of us remember when it?s like - the other place. We?ve all had to deal with difficult, unreasonable people in our lives. Often the system turns them into demons, but sometimes they start out that way. Either way, they still need to be dealt with. Keep your cool; stick to the script and remember, people don?t always have control of themselves. Possession may be nine tenths of the law, but not when it comes to software. Riding the Devil With his town running from one strange frontier to another as they elude their abductors, Aaron Walker is forced to risk all to fulfill his destiny. Last Call Damned if you do, damned if you don?t. Mike could have been a priest, but instead of serving sinners from behind a screen, he?s hearing them from behind a bar. Now some devil has unleashed Hell on Earth, and there?s no stopping it. But devils can be a matter of perspective, and this is one confession that has Mike wondering about his career choice. Where would you want to be at the end of days?
