Midnight in Paris (SHORT STORY)
Unable to attend the recent meeting in Paris, I settled for second best and wrote myself a story about Paris instead
Meet Jeff, bleary eyed visitor taken from the tourist line by a mysterious woman who introduces him to a Paris he never knew he sought. A Paris of poets and ghosts, of midnight meetings where the invited guests are as surprising as any you may encounter. Quote:

Fantastic! I've been waiting for something more
Now, I just have to figure out when your "sometime tonight" is... Let's see.. add 9 hours for Paris and only 8 hours for the UK, right? So my 6PM Sunday night is your 2 AM Monday? OK, whatever, I'll just start checking after we come in tonight. |

That would be a grand idea. Now if I can just get my day-to-day chores out of the way, I might be able to make that time
Oh, and here's the almost finalised cover for the 1st short story collection I'll be uploading soon on Feedbooks (there's another to come after that, and the Novel if I can keep my everyday life from interrupting). Last edited by Moejoe; 04-19-2009 at 03:54 PM. |

I was working the opposite way around, so yeah, that's cool. It'll be Midnight in Paris when I release Midnight in Paris...that's the kind of poetic coincidence I love

Looks like it's going to be after Midnight in Paris, when I release Midnight in Paris. Just checked the time, and I thought I had more than I've got.
