Publisher Description
PASSERBY is an anthology of short stories and is Book 2 in the series. This collection concentrates on stories that demanded a sequel and in some cases, a third part. Sometimes the demand for a 'follow up' came from my readers but on occasion the demand came from the story itself. If you are a writer, you will know that stories sometimes take on a life of their own, and even though the story appears to have an ending it cries out to be allowed to continue. I have grouped the stories so that they flow in the order in which they were written, with one notable exception. Towards the end of this anthology there is a three-parter, of which 'Keep Left' is the middle story. It was written as a stand alone story and 'Explain it to Me' and 'And In The End You'll Hear Me Calling' were written latter. "Do you have a favourite?" I hear you ask. A parent loves their children equally, but I must say that I have a particular fondness for the first two stories, one of which, gives the anthology its name, 'PASSERBY'. The stories in this anthology do not fall into any particular genre because I like to 'go with the flow' when I write. I hope you enjoy your journey through my imagination, and I hope you will come back for more. I'll keep writing them, if you keep reading them.

Have you read Terry Barca yet? If you have, I'm sure you'll agree with my review. If not, then I'd scurry along to the shopping cart while these works are affordable, because once the publishers get hold of his work you'll be paying premium prices for a fix of his writing. Terry Barca writes about the people we know - or think we know. His characters are the people next door, the lady in the milk bar or that fellow you passed in the street; ordinary people capable of extraordinary behaviour once Terry allows his remarkable powers of observation to blend with his creative writer's imagination. He uses the vernacular of thought to tell his stories, a dialect we can easily relate to as the drama unfolds. His opening lines are always to the point, setting an interest you just have to follow through the unfolding action and denouement, to the, often irony laden, last line. This collection is entertaining, thought provoking and sometimes close to home. His style is refreshingly unique and like a seasoned actor, he owns his own writerly stage.
