I was delighted to have my short story ‘Invisible’ published over on Marsha Ingrao’s Always Write blog. I’d love you to head over for a read if you have time:

Dear Esther,
Thankyou very much for giving me the chance to read your story “Invisible”, and to introduce me to this new community of writers.
I appreciated your story, with its challenging message, but I did suffer an uncomfortable twinge: some time ago I wrote a very similar story, inspired by the black street vendors here. I have it lined up for a 500-word competition.
The parallels were really very striking! I attach it here, in case you’re curious to see it. (I have tweaked it here and there, I admit).
The police, they say, don’t believe in coincidences but I think I do.
Enjoy the weekend – in the rain, I hear.
Best wishes,
Susan
