New Story on Fleeting Magazine
I’m pleased to say that I’ve got a new short story online at the lovely Fleeting Magazine, home of much that is short and good. The story is a little confection called Footnotes in Search of a Story.

- A Creative Mini-breakAs a friend said, Manchester International Festival offers a "holiday in your own city" and to my shame the last couple of times I've hardly taken advantage of it: two years ago, I was busy with work and away for half of it and two years before I was recuperating from an eye operation and not feeling like excitement of any kind.This year I too […]
- My Life With New OrderIt may seem ridiculous now, but at the time - 1982, 1983 - I had only the vaguest sense of the connection between Joy Division and New Order.

- The End of Cultural HistoryWhen Fukuyama wrote about the "end of history" in 1992 he was prompted by the fall of communism in 1989. taking the intellectual gamble that the "cold war" and its ending was a defining moment. Debunked somewhat since - not least by 9/11 - there's a certain sense-making that went into that declaration. The short twentieth century wou […]
- Manchester: City of LiteratureOn Thursday I attended the official launch for the bid for Manchester to become a UNESCO City of Literature, part of its creative cities network - an excellent initiative that sees cities worldwide networking and creating partnerships and exchanges through their mutual love of different art forms. I was at the launch a few years ago in Norwich when they anno […]
- Cop Hater by Ed McBainI don't read that much detective fiction but when I do I've always liked the hard-boiled or the noirish. Oddly I've never picked up an Ed McBain before, despite being a big fan of one of the writer's other pseudonym's Evan Hunter, whose 50s jazz noir "Second Ending" is even more a favourite than "Blackboard Jungle […]
Dear Adrian,
I am writing from Fleeting to let you know that we recently relaunched as Fleeting Books, a London-based literary consultancy, with a panel of published authors offering a range of editorial services. Although the magazine no longer exists as a separate entity, we continue to publish new short fiction and interviews on our website, and have several new projects in the pipeline.
I don’t know whether, having previously featured in the magazine, you would be interested in writing a post on your blog about the developments at Fleeting, but we wanted to keep you updated in any case, and hope that you are having success in your writing.
Please do pass the word on to any budding writers you may know, and we hope you enjoy our new website.
Best wishes,
Charlotte Seymour
Editorial Assistant
