Passerby

Book excerpt: PASSERBY is an anthology of short stories and is Book 2 in the series. This collection concentrates on stories that demanded a sequel and in some cases, a third part. Sometimes the demand for a 'follow up' came from my readers but on occasion the demand came from the story itself. If you are a writer, you will know that stories sometimes take on a life of their own, and even though the story appears to have an ending it cries out to be allowed to continue. I have grouped the stories so that they flow in the order in which they were written, with one notable exception. Towards the end of this anthology there is a three-parter, of which 'Keep Left' is the middle story. It was written as a stand alone story and 'Explain it to Me' and 'And In The End You'll Hear Me Calling' were written latter. "Do you have a favourite?" I hear you ask. A parent loves their children equally, but I must say that I have a particular fondness for the first two stories, one of which, gives the anthology its name, 'PASSERBY'. The stories in this anthology do not fall into any particular genre because I like to 'go with the flow' when I write. I hope you enjoy your journey through my imagination, and I hope you will come back for more. I'll keep writing them, if you keep reading them. Terry R Barca
