stories of the poppies

Short Story Collection – Volume 1
FLOW for All (The Forces Literary Organisation Worldwide)
When I was a lad… my heroes were not those of my peers.
No. I’m talking about real heroes. Where my friends had pictures of the great footballers on their bedroom walls – I had my collection of shrapnel in a drawer. Cannon shell cases from German aircraft, a twisted shred of doodlebug fuselage, misshapen fragments of anti aircraft shell, and best of all a few precious spent 303 bullets from a Spitfire or Hurricane.
My heroes were Johnny Johnson, Bob Doe, Robert Stanford-Tuck, Roland Beaumont and Cats Eyes Cunningham.
The short stories in this new collection are the winning entries in the 2009 FLOW for All short story competition.
FLOW for All is dedicated to offering assistance to those who have suffered from the effects of war, especially the suffering shared by servicemen and women, their relatives and their friends. Proceeds from the sales of the book will be used to support FLOW for All, helping them to become a registered charity and to employ counsellors for those in need of care and support.
STORIES OF THE POPPIES is available to order from all bookshops, or for fast despatch buy directly from the publisher who have a secure online bookshop at www.silverwoodbooks.co.uk. Alternatively please telephone 0117 916 6644.

Brighton’s Jubilee Library. This is a FREE event but tickets are required. For details please contact the publisher SilverWood Books via their website.
