The Telegram

by Tony Spencer

The telegram that has just arrived brings good news for Doctor Beth, giving her something to look forward to. However, it also reminds her of another telegram that her guardian aunt received on her behalf twenty years earlier. Ever since, Beth has waited. This is a short story of the grim affects of racial and ideological prejudice which can rear its head in the least likely of places and the long-lasting pain caused.

About the author

A Grandfather, happily married for 41 years, who worked in the printing industry for over 40 years as a typesetter and proofreader. Now retired, I am mayor of my small town in Hampshire.

I write a range of fiction from humour, romance through to fantasy; short stories through to novels. I like stories with twists and I hope you will too. My stories are mostly about relationships, with a romantic element to them, definitely not chick-lit, more chap-pap, an aspect of romance from a man's point of view, harder-edged, but soft-centred.

Please leave a review or feedback if you read one of my stories.
