Short Story: The Lighthouse

I thought it was time I shared another bit of short fiction with you all.  This one’s based on another little bit of Lucian, from his How To Write History. It’s a really interesting look at the style and substance of how history used to be written – or at least how Lucian thought it should be written. But there’s a passage in there, right at the end, which I’ve always thought was seriously profound. I wanted to expand on it a little. I felt like I had to. Hopefully you’ll see why.

Give it a read here.
