About this title

About the Author:

This is the second collaboration of stories by the Phuket Writers group. Our first volume was published in 2014 and what a thrill it was for us to see our work in print! Since then our group has evolved like any living organism, losing a few members and gaining a few members due to changes of location and natural attrition. We are still bound by our love of writing and a wish to become better writers, gathering monthly to discuss our latest projects and exchange tips and knowledge. We’ve also found a common love of food and cooking and jokingly acknowledge that our “writing club” is also a guise for “cooking club.” They seem to go well together. We hope you enjoy this diverse mix of stories from our multi-cultural group of authors from our island home of Phuket. Happy reading! Dianne Buerger (Australia), Emily M. Gibson (Germany), Jelena Kovacevic (Serbia), Lian McCabe (China), Paul McCabe (United States), Storm Morze (South Africa), Anne O’Connell (Canada) and Carol Taylor (United Kingdom).
