Holly Barratt
Holly Barratt grew up in the East Midlands, went to university in Wales, and now lives with her partner Mark, in Sussex, in a flat full of second hand books. Her first experience of story writing was improvising surreal fairy tales into a dodgy tape recorder, age four; she has been addicted ever since and is currently nearing the completion of an MA in Creative Writing at Chichester University. Treasure is her first published short story.

A bookish boy’s learning to experience his city as a blind man would experience it; a fabled and helplessly destructive dragon that lives at the local takeaway and a biker’s encounter with a Harley-fancying mermaid. The Light That Remains and Other Stories contains the winning entries from the Leaf Books Open Short Story Competition that ran during the winter of 2006. The fourteen superlative stories residing within represent the pick of crop.
