    About this ebook

    Whoever thought slugs would be so plentiful, so.......hungry. And so well-adjusted to their environment. This short-short (or perhaps prose poem might be a better designation) is only 200 words in length. If you enjoy reading Flash Fiction, Prose Poems or Short-Shorts - and with a dash of humor thrown in for good measre - then this is something right up your alley. Just be careful where you step!
