I clicked the link (lost track of which collections I have) and got all excited to see a cover of 'The Bonus of Michael Marshall Smith' (or The Michael Bonus Marshall of Smith as I first read it) which I was convinced I didn't have. Then realised it only came with the sold out editions. Drat!
Anyway, thanks for the bonus stories here! Gonna have to upgrade to paid now, aren't I? :-D
I hadn't read any of your short stories, and this, this is just so good. I've only read it through once so far, but it's one I will return to a few more times. The little details matter. I love the dark grey mood it evokes for me. I love the imagery, very similar to a lot of the abandon mines and small mining ghost towns I grew up around and spent time in as a kid. Thanks for this.
It is! And thank you. Many of this first tranche will be familiar from collections... though they've all been given an edit and re-covered...
Thank you! And don't worry about MOBI - Amazon started phasing them out for new titles last year, in favour of EPUB
PS can I talk to you about the tables your SubPress collection has broken?
Ha :-) And good news on .mobi... that's the impression I'd got, but wasn't sure. Thanks for confirming!
Thank you kind sir. My table has never recovered from your "Best of..."
There may not be much that's new to you for a while, I'm afraid ;-)

It's certainly an option ;-)
I got to page 2 and already laughed three times. I think I might need to upgrade now!
On Android, I just downloaded the epub link then shared to Kindle, which brought up the import function. Easy to do.
Thanks MMS!
You're very welcome - and thank you for the confirmation of the process!
Dammit, Michael! I mean, keep doing it, but dammit!
I forgot I'd even read this -- too long ago, apparently.
There's quite a few coming up from the vault... I hope they're worth a re-read!
Thank you for writing this Michael. I especially enjoy reading your short stories.
Thank you — I'm glad you enjoyed it. And there's more coming!

Hey Chris! So nice to see you here — thank you. And I'm really glad you enjoyed it... there's quite a variety of stories to come.
I'm looking forward to all of them.
