In the middle of an unsettled, and unsettling, evening, Jude meets Clare again in an unexpected place. What he learns will make him question his sense of himself, and will eventually change both of their lives. A standalone story associated with my novel The Ferryman. Wanna read it?

A woman stuck at a crossroads sits down at a park bench. She's joined by a strange man, also stuck at a crossroads, who's determined to have a conversation with her.

It's only what could have been if we both did exactly what our brains asked us to do and surrendered to the body's needs. If we let the silence speak louder than logic, if we allowed the moments to stretch instead of shrinking them with reason. Maybe we would have found something rare - not perfect, but undeniably real. A parallel world, perhaps, where we didn't hesitate.

I missed the chance to connect. Even in the moment, I had this feeling I was never going to forget you. There was something just so perfect about you, I looked into your eyes and I felt like I was looking into the eyes of true beauty and for a moment we connected more than I've ever connected to another person. I stared. You stared. I walked right by you, and I did not say anything. My entire life I have always initiated conversations with men. I always initiate every communication. I am a spark, and my spark was dead. I chose not to eat that night and I think I missed out on that connection because I chose anorexia over happiness. I am done. I am no longer choosing vanity, some false sense of perfection and discipline over MY AUTHENTIC SELF. I am sad I missed the connection. I am sadder I've missed out on living for almost two years now. My 2026 New Year's Resolution is to eat more and work out less. This is the dream resolution for many people, but it is my current, deepest fear. Once I feel fully recovered, I'm going back to that bar. It is a 45 minute drive from my place, but I'm going to go every Friday and Saturday night until I see him again. It will be worth it.

I always say every story worth reading is about a romance of some sort. This is a short story about a lost connection on a crush I had at university.

he unfollowed me.

She arrived at the station planning to leave everything behind. A broken heart. A familiar town that suddenly felt unbearable. The last train was meant to take her far away to silence, to anonymity, to escape. But delays have a way of changing plans. While waiting on an almost empty platform, she meets a stranger, someone with no history, no expectations, and no reason to stay. In the quiet hours before the final departure, a conversation unfolds that gently challenges her need to run. The Last Train is a quiet, emotional short story about heartbreak, healing, and the unexpected moments that remind us who we are. Sometimes the last train doesn't take you away. Sometimes, it asks you to stay.

It's funny how an ordinary day can turn into something unforgettable- even when it has no chance of continuing. The same schedule. The same place. The same faces. Until one fleeting look changed everything. And then life played its card, and it ended right there. Maybe he hesitated. Maybe he made a mistake. Or maybe some moments are only meant to exist as a what if.
