Ten Minute Tales

'Ten Minute Tales' is the second anthology by Westcliff-on-Sea Women's Institute (WoSWI) Writing Group. The anthology comprises a selection of short stories and poems based on writing prompts and a series of stories about a locket, inspired by historical author Karen Maitland, who wrote a foreword for this book. Dip inside to discover a colourful cast of characters and situations from a middle-aged temptress to a respectable member of the WI with a guilty secret, from naughty experiments to acts of revenge and stories to make you laugh and cry. Part of the proceeds from this book are being donated to the South Essex Branch of the Motor Neurone Disease Association. Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a progressive degenerative disease that can affect anyone at any time with a devastating effect on family and relationships, as highlighted in the recent Oscar-winning film about physicist Stephen Hawking and his wife, 'The Theory of Everything'.
