A story about a wall. Day 9 on 9/11
I was planning to write a funny short story today, but woke to hear the news and didn’t feel in the mood for humour. So wrote a short piece about building a wall instead.
Ironically, one of the short stories I was planning to write this month for NaNoWriMo was a dystopian fantasy. It had the following plot: Trump loses the election in the USA, comes to the UK, becomes leader of UKIP, and wins the 2020 election over here.
Now I’m scrubbing that particular plot off my list. Real life has turned out to be more bizarre, and more troubling, than my imagined fictional story!
