My collection herein does not attempt to break unbroken ground or to achieve any other high-level goals. They're just stories that happen to be short, some shorter than others. Maybe some are well-written; maybe none of them is. But a book of Homegrown short stories will have a happier ending during a soak in a hot bath than a smartphone accidentally dropped into that hot bath. And, I promise you this: No ads will ever pop up in the middle of any of these stories. So, open these pages, open your minds, suspend disbelief, and enjoy an all-around good read, without the digital distractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 308\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.69 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 06, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42100802355335,"sku":"9781716359279","price":27.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/ca4383363c9ef98e08d9420c2e4676b9.webp?v=1732387842","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/homegrown-a-slow-cooked-stew-of-southern-short-stories-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
