Flying: and other stories
This is the third volume of the 1K Lives series of short stories.

Meet the shelf stacker who is attempting unaided flight; the retired waitress who’s haunted by the memory of tiny birds; the para-legal who’s terrified of the letter ‘y’; the financial analyst who thinks he has ESP; the designer who fears that she might be raped by a ghost; and the thirteen year-old who has just written the worst poem in the history of the universe.
Find out why Bill is afraid of a tree falling on him; why Helen finds it impossible to settle on a six word autobiography; why Rowena can’t forgive herself for something she didn’t do; why Frank is afraid to remember the most beautiful person he ever saw in his life; why Surinda in lying on a bed in an overheated room; and why Lorraine will never forget the first time she saw Derek.
