LWC member, Lloyd Paige, shared his short story with us
Bird Boy
Last year I was offered the chance to write a short story for a local borough creative writing project, showcasing new writing in association with Spread the Word. I jumped at the invitation and set about creating something which I felt had the ability to strike a chord. The end result was ‘Bird Boy’, a story which touched on the subject of bullying and its ever present threat. I enjoyed the writing process immensely and have even participated in a few author readings too.
