I’m very pleased and proud that one of my short stories, ‘Retrograde Amnesia’ has just been published in the anthology ‘The Petrified World’.
There are some seriously talented writers who have donated their stories to this book. Well worth a read.
This collection of eleven short stories takes the idea of taboos, of hidden subjects, of unspoken truths as its loose theme. Some of the stories address potential problems for a near future Earth, some do not, but are all linked by the idea of what is not being talked about, whether that’s between families, colleagues, in the news or on a wider scale.
All of these stories have been given freely in support of this collection profits from which will be donated to Population Matters – once you have read them why not take a moment to read about the underlying issues, and what you can do to help at www.populationmatters.org.
You can get a paperback (£3.99) or digital copy (£1.99) here:
THE PETRIFIED WORLD
Many thanks to Martin Pond for putting this great book together.
