Sunday Snaps: the Stories
Short Fiction & Poetry Inspired by Photography
ISBN: 978-1-908858-01-631 colour images
128 pages
Short fiction and poetry anthology
This
colourful and quirky collection contains short stories, flash fiction,
vignettes and poetry of various styles and genres. It developed over the
course of 52 weeks in 2010/2011 whereby a series of ‘Sunday Snaps’ were
posted online as a creative writing exercise. Writers were invited to
use the snapshots as inspirational writing prompts. The result: an
eclectic assortment of light-hearted comedy, romance, dark tales,
tragedy, slice-of-life stories and expressive verse. While the spires of
Milan Cathedral and a café in Toronto provide the backdrop to romance,
elsewhere a marriage is arranged, children grapple with loss, and a
woman rushes to the side of a life-long friend. With a bit of French
cuisine, a spiteful kitty, a mother’s pact with the devil, a birthday
kiss and a dash of supernatural revenge, this unique collection offers a
tale for all! Stories and poetry by: Sam Adamson, Kim Bannerman, Cath
Barton, Dominique Boller, Juliet Boyd, Jodi Cleghorn, Sandra Davies,
Miriam Dunn, Rebecca Emin, Annie Evett, Stacey Faulkner, Wendy Ann
Greenhalgh, D A Volpe Herskowitz, Stephen Hewitt, A J Humpage, Steve
Isaak, Mandy K James, Susan May James, Maria Kelly, Mari Lee Kozlowski,
Lisamarie Lamb, Shannon Lawrence, Tyrean Martinson, Tony Noland, Linda
