Alan Crawford's Short Stories

The thing that happened watched from its fourth eye on the left side. It was the one on the end of the slippery blueish stork that popped out when it thought that danger was afoot.

Annie didn't need to get her gun, she need to get Robert. A co-worker who starred in her fantasy and she would make it happen.

Allison and her friend, that she'd named Towel, are on the train heading home. Some talk of adult entertainment and housekeeping.

Where you wheelie bin? Horace shared a video and now he's in trouble.

Alice had some sensitive information and Warren sent James to retrieve it. James didn't as he failed and fell.

Bronwyn had trouble at work and thought she'd need a hit man and either written a manifesto or a work of fiction.

Ron enjoyed enjoying himself in the most personal and messy way. Ruth has survived his behaviour.

I've decided to save the planet, one gullible soul at a time. I'll start a new Church.

Yes, there's more about Frank. He likes to watch. He witnessed a serious drug bust with guns drawn, while suspecting more drug dealing and men enjoying the services of prostitutes.

Mary was Highway Patrol Police and she was corrupt. Malcolm a very large corrupt dentist, a criminal drug dealer type.

Just like the classic Guinness advertisement, Frank likes to watch. The neighbours are fed up and send Ted and Bill round to have a word. 

Graham requires attention. Sadly the stories he writes for his website aren't satisfying that need.

The building has a body in the basement, two lovers,  a tenant with some odd behaviour and an unexpected outcome.

Heather has a simple life, wears her mask, deflects  unwanted advice and the smells from the shoppers downstairs.

Alan has dreams, passion and thinks he found where to aim both. It's difficult to describe what actually happens. 

The Oldman would appear to be in charge and control of everything, he was running a long term study of a human called Rodney.

Well, there's Anne who's having an affair with Robb. There's Linda, Robb's wife who is Anne's sister and there's a murder. 

Prior to Martin losing weight Randy had to lose his belly.  The content is  confusing some times.

Martin walks, talks and dreams of losing weight. His body has other ideas.

There is a smell and some noise and The Face has to figure it out, go out, stay in, either way.
