My latest short story - Project Aegis. 6th May 2010 an event happened that has been declared a 'sliding doors' moment in British political history. Politician Nigel Farage was involved in a serious accident when the aeroplane he was using to display a banner crashed. If he had died then it is possible that Brexit… Continue reading Project Aegis – Short Story
My latest short story - Homeward Bound. A little different from the last story I posted. This one was written in relation to the prompt: 'Despite all the obstacles Jerry saw before him, he just knew he had to get home for Christmas.' I kinda fudged the Christmas part, but I think it was worth… Continue reading Homeward Bound – Short Story
My latest short story Virtual Encopresis. The prompt for this story was 'Hitting rock bottom was hard, but it was fun getting there.' It was tough to come up with a story that wasn't a rag to riches and back again tale of hubris. I think my take works, let me know in the comments… Continue reading Virtual Encopresis – Short Story

The title Concrete Jungle struck a chord with me getting my brain to tick over. I had a couple of ideas (that I have filed away for possible future stories) and choose this… Continue reading Welcome to the Jungle – Short Story

Some days I got carried away and wrote multiple stories lol. Here they are for you to enjoy: Prompt: Equanimous She stood under the outstretched arms of Cristo Redentor. She… Continue reading Flash Fiction #vss365 Volume 2
I've been taking part in the #vss365 writing game on Twitter recently. This is where you are given a prompt and have to write a flash fiction piece incorporating the prompt word and fit it within a tweet, which is not a lot, only 280 characters, about the size of this paragraph. I'll be collating… Continue reading Flash Fiction #vss365
