My stories

The Second World War: PART 8 - Adelise Gèroux - Paris (1944)

Roger Farrier crossed the landing and unlocked the door marked 16A, stepping inside and twisting the lock behind him in the same movement. He slotted the thin brass chain into place and, while drawing it to the right, a horrid feeling came over him.

The Second World War: PART 7 - Roger Farrier - Paris (1944)

When the café on the corner first opened its doors in the August of 1923, Pierre Goddard and his father thought their clientele would consist mostly of businessmen. Twenty-one years later, his father long gone from polio, with shoulder-length grey hair in a bun, the physical manifestation of a man in a mid-life crisis, and a World War in full swing, it had become frequented by Nazis.

The Wonky Heart Pebble

It is worth saying that this short lives up to the name of a short story. It is more a flash fiction than anything else I could label it. We were tasked with writing the manifest content of our peer's selected item and letting the others come up with the latent, or interpretation and meaning. Hope you found it as weird as I did as a writer studying dreams for a short while.

The Woman at the UEA

The whole thing was bizarre, très à la Bond . Waiting in my name were tickets to Copenhagen International.

The Second World War: PART 6 - Andrew Macdonald - Sagan (1944)

It is just as well that the human body retains little to no memory of exquisite pain - it is only the mind that does.
