Below are some short stories (just follow the title links). Over time I will add mor
e. I hope you enjoy them. I may also add more of my poetry, if I feel brave enough.
The Librarian – August 2014
Inspired by the writers group. Never underestimate the power of books
The Silver Dream Machine – 1 November 2013
This is a piece adapted from a flash fiction entry for Flash!Friday. When I re-read it, it sounded more like a piece of free verse. My writing group agreed.
The Weather Vane – 20th August 2012
Smart city folks don’t have all the answers.
The Pickpocket – 8th July 2013
Another short story (2,000) words inspired by the writers group.
Dancing with the Devil – 12th June 2013
Again one inspired by the writers group word of the week which was ‘dancing’. It was fun to write and I hope it at least makes you smile. You can dance like Fred Astaire. But there’s a price to be paid, of course.
Protocol 29A – 29th May 2013
A series of short stories in ‘Asimov’ magazine looked at the relationship between man and robot. This inspired me to write ‘Protocol 29A’ involving a ‘Semi Intelligent Machine Operated Nexus’ (SIMON)
Watching – 29th May 2013
As with a number of my short stories this was inspired by the weekly word at the writing group I attend (although the original ‘word’ was waves). This really is a short story at 530 words, but I think it’s complete
2103 sure is SF! :-))
Found it!
