Gavin Eyers

 

Gavin Eyers is in his last minute twenties and lives contentedly in Greenwich, South-East London. He works in a post room where he delivers words to others all morning then goes home to write his own. Gavin is mid-way through a Degree in Literature and immersed in the wonderful stress of writing his first novel. When not writing he can usually be found wrecking his body in the gym or nurturing it in the pub. This is his first published story.

Imagine this: coming downstairs on a winter's morning to find that someone has shoved a tiny comet through your letterbox. Unwanted celestial light has faded the dado rail and a montage of family photographs is all askew from the eccentric orbit that it's assumed, on an axis from the umbrella stand to the cloakroom door.

 Extract from runner-up ‘Discovering a Comet’ by Pauline Masurel.

Discovering a Comet and More Micro-Fiction contains the winning entries from Leaf Books’ 2008 micro-fiction competition. From tiny comets invading your airing cupboard to still life paintings that refuse to come alive to, in Freda Love Smith’s winning story ‘Jesse and Jesus’, questions that refuse to be answered but ask you to love them all the same, it’s essentially just a bumper assorted collection of total brilliance.
