Over the years everyone has probably heard the expression “a picture paints a thousand words.” Every month between September 2011 and February 2015 the author wrote a short story (or wordascope) of about a thousand words based on an image that he had found on his many and varied wanderings across the blasted heath of the World Wide Web. This book is a collection of the 42 short stories (plus a few bonus pieces) which resulted from this endeavour. The stories vary in length from 800 to 2,500 words and cover a variety of themes and genres, each of them a self-contained snapshot of somewhere else.
