Just published by Hobeck Books is Henshaw Five – a collection of winning short stories from the wonderful Henshaw Press Writing Competition. I’m delighted to have two of my short stories included: Redhead Reunion and The Man Friend.

In her excellent foreword to the anthology, Victoria Dowd writes:

“The minutiae of life in all its beauty and sadness is captured in these tiny glimpses of existence. It is, as with all great short story anthologies, a vast kaleidoscope of emotions ranging over a multitude of experiences from the smallest of moments to the huge and overwhelming parts of life…. the reader is utterly immersed in that person;’s existence for the short time they have with them.”

All profits from the sale of the book are going to boost the collection of a school library in Worcester – a very worthwhile cause.
