Besides my non-fiction work, I also enjoy writing fictional short stories. So I created a companion site, The Passionate Foodie: Fiction, to showcase my original short stories that deal with food and wine. Check out my short stories and please leave your comments.
The current list of stories includes:
The Veil of Flowers
Feast For a Killer
You Had Me At Foie
The Perfect Wine
The Passwords: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, & Part 6
