Short Story Collections
Some Sort of Twilight by Carolyn Lewis
These twelve stories are of people unsure of their place in the world – Cassie who discovers she can fly and has no-one to tell, Christine who's been in her friend's shadow for a long time, Bernard who loses his job through no fault of his own and Hannah who knows her father is waiting for her to sort his life out. The stories combine pathos, humour and wisdom to explore how the ordinary can be strange, heart-breaking or comic, illuminating the inner lives of people who feel in some way they’re on the edge of their own lives.

My Bumper Book of Stories
by
Alana Beth Davies
In this collection, I have brought together pieces of work - short stories, flash fiction, psychogeography, and memoir. One story is purely autobiographical; some are inspired by real events or recollections, but are fictionalised, and some are written entirely from my imagination.
Some of these stories have been published in earlier collections of mine.

Dark or Bitter
byTG Hyde
In this collection of short stories, Glenn Hyde has put together six unconnected and seemingly disconnected stories. Be prepared for the unexpected, the surprising and the bewildering. From dark and gloomy to humorous and quirky, one thing links them – his unwavering awareness of the human condition in its many and varied forms. No judging, no moralising. Just observing, accepting. and sometimes imagining
The Dance
by
Alana Beth Davies
If you’re expecting these stories to fall into a particular genre, then I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. Unless there’s a genre called ‘eclectic’. My tales are varied: in theme, in content, and in length. My hope is that if you don’t like one, you may enjoy another
Kinky Playwright
by TG Hyde
An ordinary man struggling to become a writer begins to experience migraines. But these migraines are of a rare and unusual kind. Severe and uncompromising in nature, they reveal to him off-beat, yet compelling tales during states ofaltered consciousness. The stories and scenarios are far too fantastic and infectious for his own imagination to conjure up alone. Initially thought as a metaphysical gift, or a helping hand', the migraines take the man on a journey towards success and acclaim. Only this journey is not as straight forward as it seemed, and our unnamed narrator quickly encounters peculiar situations and unexpected consequences that threaten to turn his whole life upside down.
Station to the Sea
by
Alana Beth Davies
This is a mix of humour and drama. Some of these stories are amended extracts from one or other of my novels, which I feel stand up well in their own right as short stories.
Many of my stories are set in Wales, some in Swansea. If you know the area, you may recognise places, but I hope you find something you enjoy wherever your home is.
Below the Surface
byT G Hyde
This is Glenn Hyde's second collection of short stories. In this latest set of tales, we encounter themes of the uncanny, the unjust and the unexpected. Sometimes funny, sometimes frightening, but always engaging. He continues his themes of dark and humorous, sometimes with a discernible element of morality. From a rancid politician to a farcical party, through the mind and imagination of the writer, the reader will be taken on an unsettling ride.
