Welcome!

I'm Dean Jarvis, and I absolutely love writing short stories.

I aim for a clear, straightforward style that's easy and enjoyable to read. For me, the best stories spark a sense of playful curiosity and discovery. I especially enjoy giving fresh, unexpected twists to sensitive or taboo topics—often with surprising turns that keep readers guessing.

My most popular and highly reviewed book is Aunt Sally's Gnomes, a charming, whimsical tale featuring a gnome named Leopold (and his garden friends). If you're in the mood for a heartwarming story that brings a smile, click the picture on the right to see what readers are saying in the reviews.

I also have a soft spot for science fiction and stories centered on animals—two themes that pop up often in my work.

Feel free to browse my books! All of them are available on Amazon as eBook's, and through Kindle Unlimited.

And if you're a Charles Dickens fan, I've lived in Rochester for over twenty years and have some wonderful photos of the city to share.

Thanks so much for stopping by and for any support you give my stories.

Best regards, Dean Jarvis
