    DREAMING OF HEATHER

    The bed sheets are damp with sweat. The muggy, warm air offers no relief. I unwrap myself and lie on top of the duvet. This weather has to break soon. It isn’t just the close atmosphere that has made me sweat. I had been dreaming of her again. Vague images of my dream come back…

    JUST VISITING

    ‘What is he doing?’ ‘I have no idea.’ ‘He’s just standing there.’ A small group of onlookers stopped on the sidewalk to stare at the man standing in the middle of the intersection. ‘Did he just come out of the manhole cover?’ ‘Should we ask if he needs help?’ The lights changed.

    The Blurb: Sure, Agent Toni Delle has trust issues. Mate, her canine robot partner and Zach, her attitude-enabled shipboard Computer Intelligence Interface constantly tell her that – but as she told them, that was because of The Smuggler.

    QUICKSILVER

    Shimmering silver on the sand, the last chance to grasp it. Too late, it recedes and is gone, disappearing into the distance. Once it had been gold. Then, oil. Now it was water. The most valuable commodity in the world. Now he was left with just the sand. Worthless sand that covered the earth in…

    ATTACK OF THE KILLER CHICKENS

    ‘Do you know the closest living relative of the dinosaur is?’ Margarita sighed as little Nino stumbled through his favourite fact, delivered with glee every morning when they collected the eggs. ‘No, what is it?’ she played along. ‘The chicken!’ The boy laughed and started chasing after the group of hens in the yard, roaring…
