Short Stories
This Little Piggy

A family go on holiday, well its a kind of holiday, they are atually house and cat sitting.  Things don't start well, the key isn't where it is supposed to be and one of the cats that they are supposed to be looking after disappears.  That isn't all, but hey if I tell you any more it will ruin the story.  You'll just have to listen for yourselves.

WARNING: This story, despite it's title and the cover (he does look cute eh?), is NOT suitable for the under 11's (age not cricket team). 

Now you know its going to be a good one eh?

Better To Travel In Hope

When someone comes out wiht one of those well known sayings, do you just take them for granted?  Or does it make you wonder what lies behind them?  This was one of those times when my mind raced  and came up with this short story.  I gotta admit however, that it is one of those saying that I never really understood, prehaps thats a good thing or I may have never come up with this story.

Your thoughts on a virtual postcard please to steve@SciFiStories.co.uk in the meantime enjoy....

The Angel Without A Name

This is one of those stories that emerged from a random conversation with a shop keeper, a phrase came out in the conversation to the effect of "Boy Without A Name" and that got my mind working on this story.  It is one of those stories where everything isn't quite as it first seems.  I'll say no more otherwise I'll give too much away. Enjoy and don't forget to give me some feedback.

To See Or Not To See

Dare I say that this story is based on personal experience, or will you lot have me carted off and locked up?  I hasten to add that significant elements of it are made up.  That's a writers job after all.

Not suitable for young children.  What you want me to specify an age, lets say below 9.

Feedback So Far:

  • "This story very much reminds me of an experience that I had when I lived in France on an old farm, when I regularly saw an ederly lady seated outside an adjoining building.  She never acknowledged me or responded to my greetings.  I had a strange feeling when I saw her, yet never felt threatened by her.  The buiulding concerned had been vacant for  many years apparently and according to locals was the house of the grandmother.  Thanks for a super story."
