A badass queer British-Somali journalist navigates sex, mental health and the gig-economy
Welcome to my website, where you can explore a collection of linked short stories from various authors.
Linked short stories are a unique and engaging form of storytelling that weave together multiple narratives, characters, and themes. Each story in a linked collection stands on its own, yet when read together, they form a larger, interconnected narrative.
Whether you’re a fan of magical realism, historical fiction, or contemporary realism, we have something for everyone. My collections feature works by both established and emerging authors, providing a platform for new voices in the literary world.
This website is a pure labor of love! It aims to promote and celebrate the unique form of storytelling by sharing some of the best examples from around the world of this fascinating literary form.
