Amazing birthday present to be featured on Paragraph Planet today! (The origin of this story was actually a dream, and I've written a few versions of it now, from this flash 75 to a version of around 1000 words.)

I'm honoured, thrilled and gliding like an albatross to have 'Brave a Wingbeat' in the beautiful anthology, Sky Surfing, and to have a mention in Steve Whitaker's fantastic review. Enormous thanks to the brilliant Jonathan Humble 🎈 The Dirigible Balloon 🎈 JAR Project (now on B___sky) #WritingCommunity
