Ivan Smith is surrounded by words, yet he loathes them. They are a necessary evil in his career as a writer, always clamouring for attention when he would rather lose himself in music.

Words is a short story by Jacob Prytherch, author of Heal The Sick, Raise The Dead, The Binary Man and Just One Day.
