During my career I have flown all over the world, so have sat for ages in airports waiting for the damn planes to arrive or depart. It was during these useless, yet precious hours, that I began writing my short stories: in 'Gullible's Travels' I describe some of my misadventures. Some stories are unashamedly 'chick lit', while others are more worldly. A few are personal and true, while some are deliberately condensed within a 60 or 100 word limit. In one story I write as a child to describe events during WWII: I have also included one children's story. The surprising details of Shakespeare's bequests in 'Will' are totally accurate. In 'Eyes of Hope' I describe the emotions of a girl of Turkish and Greek Cypriot origin during and after the Turkish Invasion of 1974. I wrote 'Koala Country' on my way home from Australia while another story describes the feelings of a frustrated and jealous colleague of Bridget Jones. Like conspiracy theories?'The Death of Napoleon'contends he was murdered.
