Send in the Clowns

From King’s ‘Pennywise,’ to Kelly’s ‘Weary Willie,’ clown characters run the preverbal gamut from horrific to endearing. FWG’s anthology, ‘Send in the Clowns,’ is a collection of stories selected to explore this range of themes and emotions.

Solicited from an international group of writers, all members of ‘Fiction Writers Global,’ we’ve selected nineteen tales which not only highlight the joy or fear these characters elicit in others, but the sadness they may feel themselves.

Whether delightfully happy or frightfully sad, everyone has their own opinion of clowns. We know you’ll find at least one story you can identify with, and hopefully, others which will bring a new insight into how others relate to these characters.
