FICTION

Truth may be stranger than fiction, but fiction is still fun to read and to write.

​

At school, creative writing assignments were always my favourite homework. But once I had left school, I didn't write a lot of fiction except for a story or two for the children in my life.

​

Then in 2019, I discovered a challenge called Furious Fiction - write a story using prompts, under 500 words, in a weekend. I entered. I was long-listed. They had me hooked.

​

I have entered Furious Fiction at every opportunity since then and also write the odd story in between. Although I do not submit them often for publishing, I have had four stories accepted for an upcoming anthology.

Here are some from my blog. Those marked NEW have been added in the last update.
