Abby Fermont & Belinda Hunt – Mrs Godbothers and other Musings on the Seven States of Man
Poetry, more than prose, is by its nature personal but this collection is more a universal comment on the sometime hypocrisy of the modern age. ’Twas ever thus …as well as on the human condition of growing up and growing old and occasionally slaying dragons.

Abby Fermont – Unexpected Tales From The Ends Of The Earth
My stories are inspired by everyday life. I love people watching and wondering – what if? Imagining the secrets hidden below the surface and plotting what will happen to the characters once they are out of my sight. I enjoy seeking out humour in otherwise serious situations and above all, making the reader think. I like to leave clues in my writing but not to give everything away – that would be too easy! Read more…

Paul King – You Can’t Hurt Me
Based on a true story, some names and places have been changed to protect the subject’s identity and to protect the innocent.
This is a truly heart-wrenching tale of a young boy’s struggle growing up with a dysfunctional family on a South London Council Estate where violence, alcohol, drugs and a complete disregard for the feelings and interests of young children were commonplace.

Alyson Torns – Unresolved Journey
I started writing this poem in 2004 and finished it in 2007. It’s taken 8 years to reach its fruition. It is a journey through the London underground over to Portugal and back. I’m exploring memory and everyday life. It has taken time for me to let go and release it to the world. It’s a poem without an ending. I have several parts of the poem published in magazines and a pamphlet with an extract from it. Read more…

Wall Street colleagues vie for a big bonus in a deadly winner-takes-all competition (The Garden of Unearthly Delights), family secrets surface at a mock high school reunion (Sex, Death and High School), a vain news anchor goes to dangerous lengths to appear younger (The Final Diet), a lusty old sailor finds more than he bargained for (The Old Man and the Tea)… Read more…

Alexandur Tomov – Unexpected Tales From The Ends Of The Earth
My creativity is a thorough study of human psychology, of eternal values and the questions each one of us asks himself, of modern society and its pathological ideas and notions. The works in it are trying to reveal the truth about people as it is, in a unique and original manner. They are an attempt at surveying and explaining the depths of human soul and sub-conscience… Read more…

Xarina – Unexpected Tales From The Ends Of The Earth

The Mount School – A Celebration Of Food From The Four Seasons Of The World
Whilst this anthology is primarily a recipe book, we wanted to incorporate something more than this.

What we have tried to convey through this collection is a taste of food from around the world… Read more…

Mary Anne Evans – Stolen
Miriam stopped buttering bread and sat down very suddenly. She turned to Beth. ‘God, I can’t believe I’m saying all this. It’s bizarre. This only happens to other people. When you see people in the street with a child in a wheelchair you just look away, as if somehow they had deserved it, somehow you knew it to be a part of their destiny.’

Ellie Etchells – What Does My Dog Dream About At Night? …And other stories
