40 something local government worker who splits his time between family commitments, playing guitar in a nasty noisy underground band, writing, and taking pictures
I came here to enter a writing competition… and now I have won three!
Short Stories – Spherical Scriptings’ short story competition Written In The Stars Competition/Zodiac13 with Scorpio
Flash Fiction’s 2nd May Challenge with Wan
Twisted Tales 6th Star Twister with Tradition
My short story “BRILLIANT” has been published in the War Child benefit book: You’re Not The Only One
As well as writing stuff, I also now seem to be taking lots of photographs! Please read my work as well as looking at the pretty and not so pretty pictures. The writing, often contains rude words, and strong subject matter, so those easily offended should just stick to the pictures :^
To make things easier I have broken things down into categories:
All Writing
Flash Fiction very short stories
Very Short Fiction under 500 words
Shortish Fiction over 500 words and up to about 1000 words
