Stories for a Bad Day

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

'Stories For A Bad Day' is a collection of three stories about people escaping parts of their lives, written for people wanting to escape parts of their lives. It's a mental hot water bottle. A comfort for the tube, the sofa, the bath after the day has savaged you. Imagination is the healer and it flows freely, unapologetically carrying you along with it, beaching you up somewhere nicer.

Autorenporträt

Chris has been writing plays, novels and screenplays since 1998. The Incident Pit follows the success of his last book, Hurricane Hill, which received critical acclaim. Like that novel, this book is an adaptation of his stage play of the same name which tours the UK in 2019. This will be his 8th play and 6th book which continue his theme of original, story-based work. "I love imagination," he says, "and I constantly want to take readers and audiences to places they possibly could never reach - but through my writing, of course they can. There's something really satisfying about that." After having lived in many different parts of the UK, and abroad for a while, Chris now lives around the Chester area with his two young sons, Tom and James. Apart from his love of writing, he has a passion for flying, having held his Private Pilot's Licence since 1988. He also has an appetite for adventure. One of his most memorable expeditions was crossing Australia by bicycle with his brother, Tony, from Perth to Sydney in 28 days. "Life is there for challenging," Chris concludes.
