Title: A Change of Mind and Other Stories
Author: Nick Wilford
Cover Design: Rebekah Romani
Release Date: May 25th
2015
A Change
of Mind and Other Stories consists of
a novella, four short stories and one flash fiction piece. This collection puts
the extremes of human behaviour under the microscope with the help of lashings
of dark humour, and includes four pieces previously published in Writer’s Muse magazine.
In A
Change of Mind, Reuben is an office worker so meek and mild he puts up with
daily bullying from his boorish male colleagues as if it’s just a normal part
of his day. But when a stranger points him in the direction of a surgeon
offering a revolutionary new procedure, he can’t pass up the chance to turn his
life around.
But
this isn’t your average surgeon. For a start, he operates alone in a small room
above a mechanic’s. And he promises to alter his patients’ personality so they
can be anything they want to be…
In Marissa,
a man who is determined to find evidence of his girlfriend’s infidelity ends up
wondering if he should have left well alone.
The
Dog God finds a chink in the armour
of a man with a megalomaniacal desire to take over the world.
In The
Insomniac, a man who leads an obsessively regimented lifestyle on one hour’s
sleep a night finds a disruption to his routine doesn’t work for him.
Hole
In One sees a dedicated golfer
achieving a lifelong ambition.
The
Loner ends the collection on a note
of hope as two family members try to rebuild their lives after they are torn
apart by jealousy.

ReplyDeleteAnd great big hello to you Clare! Hope all is well with you and the family. I miss chatting with you! I haven't been around much lately in the blogosphere, but I just joined the A-Z Challenge because I'm completely insane. Fingers crossed I can keep up.
JEN! *glomps* How are you? I hope all is well in your world. I miss chatting to you too, and know what it's like not having enough time for blogging. I saw you and your daughter had signed up for the A-Z, and I'll be hopping over to visit! :D
