Our story today is not designed to cheer you up on a dreich Sunday, but the writing is beautiful. It comes from the ever-insightful pen of Clydebank writer Jack O’Donnell. What happens when it all falls apart? Communications. Marriage. Life.
Read Life Lessons. Here’s something to take your mind off Abigail – the storm, stupid, not the lady throwing the party.
It’s a beautifully written, poignant tale about gardening – and so much more. And it comes from the pen of that doyenne of short storytelling and zumba, Glaswegian writer Karen Jones. Enjoy Boundary Lines. In our McSerial today, it’s the penultimate instalment of Soap Opera Scotland’s Game of Gnomes – Series One with guest writer Rab Christie.
The Dirty War has begun in the Mother of All Parliaments. #TeamMacGnome is under siege. Will they be taken out one by one? The tension mounts in Episode Eleven. Missed any of the earlier episodes? Nae bother. You can catch up with them by using your cursor to hover over Oor McSerials in the left-hand sidebar and then following the trail. Bo’ness poet and writer Glenn Muir returns today with the tale of a holiday from hell. You know the kind. Traipsing round Disneyland with the dysfunctional in-laws in the wilting heat. Aye, that kind.
Enjoy In the Summer of Ninety. The plot thickens in the latest instalment of Soap Opera Scotland’s Game of Gnomes – Series One with guest writer Rab Christie.
It’s not a re-run of the Gunpowder Plot, though. Nope. Not at all. No siree. Move along now. There’s nothing to see here. But you can read all about it in Episode Ten. Missed any of the earlier episodes? Nae bother. You can catch up with them by using your cursor to hover over Oor McSerials in the left-hand sidebar and then following the trail. Continuing our aliens theme from yesterday, here today is the latest tale from Dalmuir-born Alasdair McPherson, the thinking man’s sci-fi McStoryteller. It’s called Achilles Foot. And it goes to prove that even an invading alien can end up leading a dog’s life.
Enjoy! Our favourite American scribbler, Boston-based Michael C. Keith, kicks off the McStorytellers week with a slice of Keith humour.
Sometimes, even when you’re an alien, you have to Compromise. Enjoy. It’s one helluva tail (sic)! |
