To Be An Angel



The Fish Anthology 2008 went on sale this week. I have a story included: 'To Be An Angel' which was inspired by 'The Angel Project', an art installation that began life in the tower of London, was later expanded and moved to Perth in Australia, and post 9/11 it opened in Manhattan, New York. 'The Angel Project' presented those viewers who persevered with a 'real' experience of confronting angels. The angels were actors employed to be totally silent, and still, with strict instructions not to commune with the earthly customers. This was such an intriguing proposition that this story just begged to be written.
