Short fiction
Myths & Fairy Tales Something
A short 30 minute free write. Please read the author's explanation at the bottom of the piece to see what this is really all about. Then just react and comment on whether you like it or not. Use of the word bollocks will not be frowned upon, given in particular that when it comes to fools, I do not suffer myself gladly!

Humour The Lightness of Choux Pastry
Satire might be the best description! I hope you enjoy reading it. It was published in Spoiled Ink's September 2005 e-zine, where it won a Writer's Choice award.It was also shortlisted for the Sling Ink short fiction prize and is published in their anthology of short stories entitled 'An Angel Passed Through'. Both events occurred after I put the story in here. All comments are welcome and please... feel free to say what you really think! It's not that great!
