Description
Introducing Holiday Shorts, a compilation of bite-sized stories with a far wider scope than a typical short story collection! Quick to read, packed with wit and wry observations, but often set against a background which leaves plenty to think about, these stories cover it all from love and loss, history and sci-fi, wars and terrorism to family and contemporary social issues.
Some of them are based in London where the author grew up and a number are inspired by Sussex where he now lives. They range across time from the medieval to the apocalypse, across the Earth and into the far galaxies, but all feature characters that a reader can relate to.
Perfect for the busy reader.

A Note From the Publisher
Garfield Collins is a Londoner now living in Pevensey Bay (where William the Conqueror landed!)

Swimming in the sea, tennis and walking keep him fit to enjoy time with his growing family.
Advance Praise
'Holiday Shorts adds a new and exciting dimension to short story-telling. You really can pick it up and put it down without losing its drama and dynamic, only to return to find an endless library of 'bite-size' cameos and persuasive plots. This masterpiece gives great credence to the art of creative writing and its ability to enable all of us to capture the pain, purpose, passion, and humour of everyday life.' - Dr Juliet Williams CBE, former commissioning editor for MacMillan
