The Other Side of Everything: A Collection of Twisted Yarns - Mere World

In the first story in this collection a young journalist is disappointed to be sent away on a discouraging assignment, but she soon discovers that inspiration can appear in the most unlikely places. In a second there are fabulous beasts, a raging storm, hostile city states, and in the middle, a young couple and their forbidden love. In another, a schoolgirl is dragged into an adventure to save an endangered people in another world, where things get very complicated very quickly.
The seven eclectic fictions in this collection vary in length and encompass a number of genres, but are united by their sense of humour, and in being set in the same partly real, partly imaginary location.
