Bombs Away
2008-06-05 14:30:00 There was a bomb alert today, a few buildings up from my office in central London . The cordon ran from about a foot from the entrance to my office up to the far end of the street, something like ten buildings long. I arrived to find a number of people milling around taking advantage of the ... More About: News , Personal , Random , Thoughts

Can you see the joins?
2008-06-01 20:11:00 A quick note. Yesterday was spent in Camden, a place I haven’t been to in ages and we are talking years not months. I can’t really understand why as I really like the market a lot and when the sun is out the canal is a great place to walk along. Or - as I used ...
Touched
2008-05-30 14:49:00 You can blame futurismic for drawing my attention to this. That in turn led inevitably to this: Touched By Neil Beynon Certainly. I am a four series leisure model. That?s not very nice. I prefer employed. Mr Crabtree. It?s silicone. They can do amazing things with silicone these days. Once upon a time they did consider flesh but I believe the ...

Friday Flash Fiction: Fracture
2008-05-16 13:15:00 As some readers may have gathered my confidence has taken a bit of a knock of late. A somewhat annoying turn of events following on the heels of stories such as Faraway, Pixies and Territory, that I am quite pleased with. Then my confidence ding happened and out came Devil Eyes, that seemed too trite, ... More About: Flash , Horror , Fiction , Short Stories , Friday

Friday Flash Fiction: Quantum Cigars
2008-05-09 13:00:00 Here goes. Feedback is welcome. Quantum Cigars By Neil Beynon There was no sound. This was marginally disappointing but not unexpected. Simply changing the quantum frequency to allow his enhanced eyes a view of the multiverse was difficult enough; the power required astonishing. The artificial star he was using to do this pulsed within its containment field, or ... More About: Flash , Fiction , Science Fiction , Friday

The Far Side of the World
2008-05-05 01:09:00 I am now in Wellington having been traveling for around thirty-five hours. That means this post may make even less sense than normal and without even considering that I’m doing it on my mobile. Anyway, I’m rambling. I do that. The flight out was good but long and there was mildly concerning mishap in Aukland. Our ... More About: Holiday , World , New Zealand , The World , Side

Review: The Philosopher at the End of The Universe By Mark Rowlands
2008-04-23 18:22:00 I used to have this deal. I like to keep myself well anchored outside of the world of genre by reading widely ? I also enjoy variety - and so I used to read at least one non-fiction book a month. I haven?t done this in ages but for various reasons I thought I?d start ...

Friday Flash Fiction: Territory
More articles from this author:2008-04-18 09:45:00 As long as I've been doing the Friday Flash G has been asking me to write a specific type of story. On weeks where I find myself clawing for ideas the answer from her is often: do that one I want you to do...or words to that effect. And so finally I have. This week's story was written for G - belatedly - for the occasion of her birthday. Feel free to provide feedback in the comments.
