Now Showing (2009)
“Me, I usually skip the introduction. I want to enter the work fairly untainted and unprimed, as much as anyone can. I want to let the story speak for itself. And mostly it does. However, occasionally, I have gone back to the introduction searching for some kind of clarification, context or justification. That is what this introduction is. I’m going to try to tell you ‘how to read these stories’. As I’ve just said, this is not something I usually tolerate as a reader. So, let me extenuate...I be...lieve these stories do not easily fit within the usual definition of the short story. While there are many forms to the short story and novella and they continue to be redefined, the pieces in this collection don’t quite fit that mould. Something’s not right. So, like a bite into that chicken and salad sandwich you bought from the Jiffy van, it might be timely to peel back the bread and sniff the meat. These stories don’t taste entirely like short stories. They taste a little like films.I have been writing original screenplays for the last twenty years, with the creative and financial support of producers, broadcasters and government screen agencies.MoreLess
