Packed with high-quality writing, this anthology gathers together the work of a varied and talented group of new and established authors. The inspiration for many of the pieces was the on-line creative writing e-course run by Tim Atkinson on the blog www.bringingupcharlie.co.uk (the full text of which is included in the Appendix). All proceeds from the sale of this book are being donated to the BBC Children in Need Appeal.
