COVID Alert and other stories

COVID Alert and other stories (Kindle Edition)

Margaret Halliday’s sixth book, COVID Alert and other stories, is an intriguing mix of mainly fictional tales laced with non-fiction. The title COVID Alert tells of a dark and disturbing two-week stay in hospital at the height of the pandemic when the author is confronted by a patient who desires everything that she is desperately trying to overcome.
Many of the other stories were generated during Margaret’s Open University creative writing courses and encompass: gender identity issues, mental health, homelessness, disability, ecosystems, naturism, relationship problems, single parenthood, memory loss, crime and miscarriage trauma.
Sweet, bitter sweet or down right sour, occasionally with an added twist of spice, these mostly romantic dramas will transport you to other realms.
