'Short' will be a regular, but not so regular feature in the future. These are snippets of stories, usually scribbled down on a small piece of paper, or a napkin (cliché alarm). Feel free to utilise these snippets as the beginning of your blockbuster novel, your bedtime story, your comic relief in the opera you've been writing for the past ten years or simply to blow your nose.
