A Short, Strange Story for Every Day of the Year

A Short, Strange Story for Every Day of the Year is a quiet collection of 365 brief, uncanny stories—one for each day—meant to be read slowly, not devoured.

Each entry is based on something real, plausible, or historically documented: a forgotten incident, a peculiar human habit, a bureaucratic oddity, an unexplained coincidence, or a moment that never quite fit into the official record. These are not horror stories, and they are not trivia. Nothing jumps out. Nothing explains itself too loudly.

Instead, each day offers a small, contained story—calm, observational, and slightly unsettling in the way real life often is when you look at it closely.

This book is designed for:

• Late-night or before-bed reading

• Daily, low-commitment Kindle Unlimited sessions

• Readers who enjoy lingering thoughts rather than conclusions

• Anyone who prefers quiet strangeness over spectacle

Every entry follows the same gentle rhythm: a date, a short title, a few reflective paragraphs, and a final line that stays with you after you turn the page.

You can read it in order, skip around by date, or return to it night after night as a small ritual. There are no lessons to learn, no facts to memorize, and no pressure to keep reading longer than you want.

Just one strange thing, once a day.
