Another story of mine has been posted at bookscover2cover; called Corpus, it can be read by clicking on the link.

Essentially, it’s a political piece, probably.

Thanks, Jen – very much a story that grew out of images and atmosphere, which made it darn tricky to pull together, I must say 😛
Done expertly though! 🙂
Jack the ripper … and poor Liza .. what a write here, really effective and powerful!
Thanks, Georgia – a bit experimental and, well, aggressive, really. It took a while to get into shape, so I’m pleased that it worked 🙂
