The premise behind these short stories was to write tales which could be used as fifteen minute radio items. This means most of them are around three thousand words in length. The exception is Inspection which is around nine thousand words. I have used different genres and I find writing a relaxing way to pass the time when travelling. It is amazing how quickly a five hour plane journey passes when you are lost in creating a fiction. Two of the stories, Work Makes You Free and A Tuscan Wedding are non-fiction recounts of actual events. We all have stories within us and I would urge you to just have a go! Kindle and CreateSpace are excellent, simple to use and free platforms for any aspiring writer. For more writing tips and details of other publications please visit my web site.
