Unusual Florida: Runaway Tales Index
This is a listing of the pieces within the Unusual Florida canon I've written for runaway_tales, sorted chronologically.
Unusual Florida
Unusual Florida is a mystery sci-fi novel about three families, an extraordinary summer vacation, and the impact the events of that summer have on each, spanning years into the future.
Entries with a * next to them are locked, so you must be a member of runaway_tales to see them.
(Note: Amanda and Hope are the same character. I changed her name recently, so older pieces will have her as "Amanda" and newer ones as "Hope." Cassie also shows up with a different last name in post-2007 pieces. That's because she legally changes it.)
