When I worked on radio in the south of Spain I presented and recorded four series of Authors in the Sun showcasing local writers and their short stories. I ran a series here on the blog in 2017 which was much enjoyed and showed off the skills of some amazing writers.

Wonderful story, John! Her dad’s a pushover and he’ll probably have regrets later on! 🙂

Well I was a push over and have no regrets. I remember when the youngest was about two, I said to the Producer, “Let’s just give her anything she asks for.” She never asked for much but whatever it was she got it. She is a terrific, confident 32 year old.
