A New Short Story
Hello folks,
I hope everyone is well.
After some logistical problems, I’ve finally uploaded the short story I’ve been banging on about for some time. You can find it by clicking here . It’s a crime caper which is told from the viewpoint of a blunt (think a poor man’s Dashiell Hammett). It’s not the first time I’ve written a short story from the viewpoint of an inanimate object, but it’s probably going to be the last. I’m also going to lay off imitating an American voice for a bit. Even if I manage to filter out most of the Britishisms, I have American friends and family reading these stories so enough is enough…
Regardless; I hope you enjoy it. I don’t smoke these days, but I am still an advocate of reforming our drug laws here in the UK and across the world for a multitude of reasons. The stoner stereotype does weed a massive injustice. When all the shouting’s done it can be a great aide to creativity and has medicinal properties for all types of serious illnesses. I personally feel it’s about time weed is given the respect it deserves by being legalised across the world.
A proper blog update will be provided early next month for all you Dreyfus heads.
Take care!
RD

Haha! Cheers, Jason :-)
Brilliant Story Rupert, always keeping me guessing about where the story will go. The moral of the story was class too.One of Dreyfus' Fables?

Thanks for reading, Jason! Yeah; it was a bit of a ridiculous premise and I really wanted to make a point about our drug laws! Spread the word :-)
