stub entered his first short story competiton of 2008 today. It's the Writer's Forum Short Story Competition and here is a tiny sample of the story...
Hugh Grant's Brother and a Filthy Animal
...I ascended to the street and it was getting dark - the beginning of magic. The trees in the square were fitting in a sudden wind. There was music and shouting. A small crowd had gathered around a man who warned them about something really terrible. Some people were openly laughing and pointing like he was TV. A disgruntled accordion player inched closer to them with his moustachioed smile trying to draw off defectors.
