This site is for short story writers, poets and readers. Not all stories have happy endings, and no tall stories are true but all short stories are, undoubtedly, short. This is a place to come to tell tales, spin yarns, drop lines, write stories and, most importantly, enjoy words.

Ah Stokey. On one hand, I hope its not as I left it, on the other I would like it to remain entirely untouched: gun hold-ups in Bar Lorca on weekday nights and Chesney Hawkes in that BYO Booze Dosa Palace on Church Street.
Thanks for following – will reciprocate on the strength of N16 alone.

Haha! Yeah, I know what you mean. It’s gone a bit Clapham the last couple of years. Less running gun battles down the High St..
April 17th, 2012 at 12:48 pm
Hahaha! My sister moved from Carysfort Road to Clapham and then on to Barnes. Don’t say I told you, but I reckon she’s a Lost Soul for now.
Off to walk the dog.

And, how could I forget. Seal upstairs in the Vortex, wearing an ankle-length chunky-knitted cardie – after ‘Crazy’ but well before Heidi Klum (& All That Jazz).

Superb! We’ve got Stewart Lee and Bobby Gillespie still. And Peaches Geldof pops in to buy accessories occasionally..

Atoms are very short,
universally speaking,
stories unto themselves.
Hello 🙂
April 3rd, 2012 at 3:24 pm
Indeed! Atomic tales..

Tim,
While you won’t usually find Guinness here in the south of France, should we ever meet up here, perhaps you would settle for some of our great wine or a glass of Pastis? 🙂

Nice blog. Intend to stop by often. Thanks for your visit.

thanks for subscribing to my blog. if you’re ever in Adelaide, I’ll certainly shout you a pint: in the best pub in town: the Stag Hotel!

thanks for following my Not in India 2012 blog. It is an honor. And a bigger thanks for bringing me here to you. I look forward to exploring your blog further. I live to write, or write to live-whatever-but am too lazy to “make” a book as has been suggested to me too often over the years. which is why I blog…have several blogs…and just love it. It is the lazy way out for me at least – to still write for myself, share with others and not commit to anything overly serious. And love coming across other blogs which peak my interest 🙂

Thanks for stopping by North Carolina via the internet. I’ve been to Oxford and drank a toast to Tolkein and CS Lewis while there. Toured Scotland by car. If you cross the big pond, please let me know! BTW: short stories have become a favorite fare of mine, albeit some are a bit on the Twilight Zone edge (Dead Wood, Harvey Meeks Crawl Space). Cheers!
