While my flat was being rewired I decamped and wrote the first draft of a story for the Gnational Short Story Competition. The story concerns a teenager who is so fed up with the status quo that she goes rustic regardless. The plot including, humour, tenderness, heart wrenching and dramatic moments, ends euphorically.
My entry for the Writers' and Artists' Yearbook competition is by contrast set in mid Fifteenth Century Florence ( thanks to OU course; Fifteenth Century Italian Art ). The theme is 'the visit' and my story concerns the future of an unrelated couple whose plan to ally by means of a marriage between their heirs has busted. When we meet them in the protagonist's palazzo the mood is sombre but changes abruptly and the outcome is hilarious.
