Me-Time Tales by Rosalind Minett

Me-Time Tales by Rosalind Minett

Quirky and intriguing - Katie Fforde.

Love Sue Townsend, Fay Weldon? Then enjoy a wry smile with these satirical stories. They feature women of all ages, from Jess aged sixteen suffering a man with good legs, to Bellissima who has not faced her name, let alone her age. The obsessions include beauty, fertility and a range of fish. Women who want to date, mate, conceive or avoid children are here, as well as women with material or marital dilemmas. Their men reveal their own quirks on the sidelines (but they will have their say in 2017 when Curious Men is released).

The stories provoke or challenge expectations while the end often surprises. Readers comment that the book is a great read for all ages and both sexes.

The first edition rated 4.8* on Amazon. This second edition contains additional stories, including an affair with a mattress.

Amazon reviews: These original, often quirky tales with their hallmark of wry humour remind me of a female, modern-day Saki

A wonderful collection of amusing and pertinent short stories; stories that are crying out to be narrated on the radio.

Minett, Rosalind: - Rosalind's career as a psychologist led her to work with a wide variety of adults and children. She spent her last fourteen years of work as an expert witness. Now retired, she creates imaginary characters instead. Her understanding of how people think, learn, feel and behave drives her plots in everything she writes. She writes in different genres but each can be described as psychological fiction, the plots driven by their complex and sometimes unusual characters. Her writing is always touched with humour and often with a dark edge. Her short stories have been performed in Bath and Bristol, UK, and others included in anthologies. Rosalind lives in SW England and, outside family time, enjoys sculpture, painting and theatre.
