Hi Jude,Welcome to the group! One of the members of the Published Authors forum, Dick Stodghill (of Irish descent!), died recently at the age of eighty-four. He was quite an accomplished short story writer and many of his stories appeared in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine and Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine. Maybe that is the way to go for you.
Good luck!

Hi Carrie,Welcome to the group and congratulations on all your successes! My novel, Mr. Planemaker's Flying Machine, was serialised this year on Preston FM, which was brilliant! Forty-eight daily episodes went out with weekly Sunday omnibus editions. Maybe we will be able to listen to a Joni-Pip serialisation soon. Let us know if it happens.
Hi Brett,
Welcome to the group! Good luck with the book!
Hi Patrizia,
Welcome! That is great news about the short story. I can't wait to read it. As soon as it is added to the website, I will send out a message inviting everyone to read it.
If anyone else would be interested in writing a short story (any length but must be original) check out the opening paragraph of the story on Visual Arts Junction:
