My Paperback Book

These are dark, unusual short stories with a twist from the prizewinning author of The Poison Garden of Dorelia Jones, Losing It, and The Marsh People. Here's the woman with the sinister pet, the man who returns to the sea, the website promising the earth, the skull removed from the museum display case, a talking crow and many other tales to keep you awake at night. Widely published in Dark Tales, Black Cat and other journals, these stories are presented here as a collection. The author lives in a forgotten corner of Shropshire in an old cottage with a well under the floor and tries to stop the garden getting into the house. Also a poet, she gives readings and has had many of her poems published. She has a MA in Writing Studies.
