Short stories are, in my mind, just a brief snapshot of what could be a longer tale. A taster. Something in development. Fragments.
Each of these collected shorts are just that. Saying something different in each one and writing each one, was a bit like trying to paint the pictures accordingly. Each story has a different personality and so they each a need little bit of something here, a little bit of that there, just like people. Some people you can't walk up to because you know they're a bit edgy first thing in the morning. So you have to come up sideways to them, and it's kind of like how these stories are too. They have their own little personalities, and if it doesn't want you to do it, it won't let you.
Asked what each piece is about, I attempted to cooperate, but in truth I want those reading, who chooses to, to find their own landscape or indeed none. But I have suggestions.
Extra note. For this edition I have included some extra stories which were not featured in the first edition.
