There's been some good stories of late up on various sites.
Julie Morgan's The Birthday Present on Thrillers, Killers and Chiller is funny, messy and probably true.
Keiran Shea on A Twist of Noir has a blinding little tale that, again is very believable.
Jim Wilsky's Big Cat is a damn good read, kept my attention all the way through
and
The Flash Fiction Offensive does what it does best with Erin Cole's tale of everyday life at a US burger bar.
Me? Yeah I'm writing, got over the 58,000 word hole. I'm waiting for an email though. One that may come by tomorrow. Fingers and everything else is crossed.

Lack of updates
Just an update to explain the lack of updates. Firstly, there's no real explanation. Real life just gets in the way sometimes.
Secondly, writing is going very slowly on all fronts. I'm up to about 52,000 words on Seven Daze, but it's becoming hard work. Haven't written a short story in months, but I've got ideas for two more books.
Thirdly Alibi have a new writing competition this year whereby the place the story is set must become a big part of the story. I'm thinking of entering, but the old mind's blank at the moment.
Lastly, is it fourthly or forthly? Neither look right to me.
