Short Fuses

Short Fuses is a compendium of 20 incendiary confections created in the fractious online assembly known as the Bookshed: an unruly gathering of linguistic fugitives whose only common bond is a passion for writing, absinthe and monkeys.

Most of the writers represented here are escapees from other peer-review websites, although at least one is on the run from constabularies not merely virtual.

Should you wish to meet them, why not knock on the bar-room door at www.bookshed.eu? If they like the cut of your jib, they might even let you in.
