Synopsis

Inside Out Community presents…
GLIMPSES OF INFINITY - A WRITE MINDS ANTHOLOGY.

Glimpses of Infinity showcases just a tiny sample of the work produced by authors from the Write Minds creative writing group.

The anthology comprises an eclectic mix of pieces that were written during a series of creative writing classes run for Inside Out Community and Write Minds by Petra McQueen, the founder of The Writers' Company (https://www.thewriterscompany.co.uk).

Readers will enjoy reading these new short stories, prose pieces, and poems spanning a wide range of subjects from authors who are each unique in approach and style, but who all share a common passion for writing. For example;

• Brendan Wilson recounts the story of an elderly witch.
• Jan Addison reflects on a field of daffodils.
• Caroline Izzard explains the value of junk-journaling.
• Simon Black weaves a new fable featuring an abundant chest.
• Alan Vickers tells the story of a grieving widower who finds new hope for the future in the love for a tiny dog.
• Tess Last takes us inside the mind of a kitten experiencing something new.
• Kenny Mackay recounts a late night encounter with a mysterious presence outside his home.
• Mick Grant chronicles the misadventures of Superman as he tries to blend-in with the people and situations he experiences in our bewildering world.
• Diane Pilbro explains how playing the djembe drum can help with well-being, healing, and exercise.
• The family of Brendan Pearson share some poems and an excerpt from his loosely autobiographical novel Howard Flinch - an Introvert in a State of Angst.
• Mai Black meditates on the lifecycle of a raindrop.
• Sallyanne Webb finds haven in a hidden cove.
• Peter Watkins reveals the dark mystery behind the strange events at Coopers Hollow.
• Maggie Singleton spins the spooky tale of Rose as she walks through the snow towards the church music.
• Esme Pears plays with time at the end of a life.
• Thomas Freestone tells a story within a story, as a class of children listen to their teacher.
• Hilli Thompson narrates the historic legend of a dragon that once terrorised Suffolk.
• Ankita Aggarwal reveals the thoughts and memories of a river as it nears the end of its inevitable flow to join the sea.
