    About this ebook

    The Wizard Takes a Holiday is a flash fiction humorous rural fantasy of about 1500 words, by Red Tash. Originally meant as a one-off, it has since inspired six other Wizard Tales, each growing significantly longer as readers demand to know more about this mysterious character & the hidden world he roams, so like our own.

    I’m Red Tash. I write dark fantasy.What is dark fantasy? It’s a cocktail of imagery from the most secret places of your mind. It’s scary, at times funny, imaginative, and simultaneously familiar. If you like Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, or Holly Black, you like dark fiction.I have written fiction and poetry as long as I can remember. I hope you like it.
