Super Shorts is a collection of stories and monologues in the superhero genre. Author M. Kelleher started writing them during the pandemic while coming to terms with and processing some big changes to her family, many of which stemmed from the men in her life playing out characters mired in the idea of American masculinity.
 
These short stories represent a search for understanding and empathy. Some are dark, some are funny, but Kelleher hopes that even when they’re bleak, as a collection they leave the reader feeling that there is room for reflection and growth.
