Other People's Houses - Paperback - 9781503058965

A collection of sixteen shorts and four poems with a link. The connection being that all twenty pieces are titles of songs by Australian Singer/Songwriter, Film Scorer, Actor and Author, Paul Kelly. I hit on the idea after finishing "Violet Hiccup", my second novel, and thought it might be a good writing exercise. They (the shorts, not the poems) are also featured on mcstorytellers.com, author Brendan Gisby's excellent Scots-connected short story website. If you are unfamiliar with Paul Kelly's vast output of clever songs, I urge you to investigate. He's not an easy man to categorize, but all the easier to listen to for that reason. Incidentally, Paul was recently made a Doctor of Arts by his home state university, South Australia. Yet another string to his bow. A twofold reason for this collection, the first being I want people to read my stuff and the other, more important perhaps, I want people to investigate the songs of Paul Kelly.
