A bus ride into town is the ideal opportunity to enjoy reading, especially if it’s a regular journey and you’ve seen the passing scenery many times before. Ten minutes is enough time to find a seat, exchange the odd pleasantry with fellow passengers, take out your Kindle and put it away again after reading a thousand or two words. With this in mind I have produced a collection of tales that take that length of time to read. Some are a little longer, some are a little shorter, but all are of a size to be enjoyed at one sitting.
There is a variety of themes and styles, so the reader can choose according to the day. There are spooky ones, thrillers, humorous ones and the odd tear-jerker. There are stories played-out in exotic locations and some set close to home. There are tales that envision the future: fantasy – a little science-fiction, even, whilst others echo a world long since past. In short: there is something for everybody and something for every mood, but all, I hope, have a dimension that touches on the human spirit.
I hope you enjoy my collection but, whether you do or not, please let me know what you think. We at Panocticon aim to write exactly what our readers love to read, and we can only do that if we pay attention to the feedback they give us.
