I was thinking you're one of my favourite contemporary writers. I especially liked the interaction between the narrator and the doctor.

By the way, what a wonderfully back-handed compliment. :)

that was sublime. thank you!

I especially liked the part describing William going from frightened to unnaturally serene, and the way you wrote the childrens' dialogue like Dickens or something.

Splendid work Stanley. This is probably one of the most mesmerizing ones I have read by you so far. I felt already after the third paragraph that I had to read it all now. Way to go.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! This one is quite a bit longer than the others.

An excellent piece of fiction. I checked your blog right after I heard Kurt Vonnegut died. Not that your writting is similar but I read your story through a Slaughterhouse-Five filter. Couldn't help it.
Thanks

I believe this is a fairly famous photograph from WWII London, but I can't remember now who the photographer is. The original really caught my eye when I first saw it.

I like the idea of writers buffering the loss of other writers. When I die someone is going to have to dig out my sister's teenage poetry.
