Gus Stories
I read a lot as a kid and now enjoy having others read my “what if’s”, hopefully expanding their own imagination.
Money is tight for a lot of people and I don’t want finances to stop someone from reading my work. It is absolutely free to read my short stories, and also free to print them to paper if that’s your bag. If someone has some cash to spare and wants to support my website, they can pay a ONE-TIME fee of 15.00 to gain access to the audio, which will be made available for each story. (Read by me). No annual renewals.
If you like my stuff, like and share. I want to thank you for checking my website out.
