Who really killed JFK, and why? What strange secret do oranges hold? Can sub-sub-atomic particles have sex? Where do stories that no one will ever read go? What is God doing in Arizona? What happens when the national debt clock reaches zero? Where does luck come from? Do plants and animals have souls? What is the true source of your childhood fears?" These and other burning questions are explored in TWENTY TWELVE, a collection of seventeen truly different, entirely original short stories from bizarre urban fantasy writer Tracy Shew. Also included in this edition by reader demand, INCLEMENCY, a novella previously published in electronic format, now available in print edition for the very first time. Terry Bisson, commenting on The Missing Link (included in this edition): "Something funny is happening in the universe, and Shew is on the case."

Tracy Shew has had a varied life: Art Historian, professional pyrotechnician, professional philatelist, fledgling painter and sculptor, and once he managed the storage facility where Timothy McViegh had rented a unit, necessitating a week-long vacation as investigators did their duty in mid-1995. Currently, he leads a quiet, unassuming life as an IT professional in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. After a lifetime of experience, and writing for 15 years, he feels ready to share some of his milder perceptions with others, wrapped in digestible (?), bite-size tidbits of prose. His goal is to show that the "ordinary" world around us is actually highly extraordinary, and that our perceptions of it are malleable and unique. Ostensibly, what he writes is urban fantasy, sometimes ranging into humor, science fiction, or horror. He looks to R.A. Lafferty, Terry Bisson, Haruki Murakami, Rod Serling, and anyone who demonstrates that thought-provoking content and strange but gripping story outweighs the appetite for bland, pretentious entertainment. "If I've made you look at one thing around you in a new way, I'm satisfied."
