More from the Owid Files

For ten years now, Kev Pickering has been writing stories, both short and long, but the underlying theme of many of those stories is Ordinary Women in Distress - or as he puts it, the OWiD Files.

This collection reprints some of his favourite stories of the last ten years, including three of the most popular he has ever written. From a love letter to the cartoons of his youth, to stories of women in the wrong place at the wrong time... From voyages of self-discovery to the terror of being kidnapped, there is something here for everyone.

He hopes you enjoy these - and if you want more, you only have to ask...
