The Book My supernatural story The Book has been published in That's Life!, the weekly Australian magazine. Being as objective as I possibly can, I reckon this ranks in the top five short stories I've ever written - mind you, I do have a soft spot for ghost / supernatural tales.
The story concerns a man who finds what looks like a diary / journal on the train seat next to him, opens it out of curiosity and discovers it's written in his own handwriting....
Okay, that's enough spoilers. Suffice to say, I'm glad to have at last written a yarn that rivals my most successful short story A Tooth Fairy Calls which was more or less the first piece of short fiction I ever wrote.
Let's hope there are more to come.
Below are links to my Canterbury Tale published by Coscom Entertainment, my most recent Global Short Story Competition winner, my short-listed story for the National newspaper, Abu Dhabi's, annual short story competition and a story that appeared on the Every Day Fiction site - where you can leave a comment:
