The Global Short Story Competition

Viva España

Still experiencing a slow start to the March competition but I am delighted to say that we have added another country to our list of entries - so welcome Spain.

Actually, this blog is more of a plug for one of my own works. Before I was picked up by Robert Hale for my crime novels, I tried writing children’s fiction.

I had a book accepted by a London company which put out all the publicity ahead of publication - then went bust.

So, my father and I self-published and sold out. Now the book has been reissued, complete with a new cover by my fellow Certys director Mark Etherington.

Haghir The Dragon Finder is a comic fantasy, taking the premise that nothing is as it seems, and is an affectionate parody of children’s fantasy tales.

First published in 1994, it is now available for sale at www.lulu.com/content/661828

Ok, plug over!
