Here are twenty short stories, tales, flash fictions and monologues from Brindley Hallam Dennis in Doubtful Outcomes. The Storyteller is a man who retells a story everyone has heard before, but do they believe it? Does he? The editor in A Stitch in Time is looking for a photograph that will the tell the story of its subject, but it will it tell the true story? And who is The Non Swimmer, and what does the newspaper headline say? And when we encounter someone we think we used to know, is memory playing us false? And can Walls record the past of the rooms they enclose, or even the future? And when we set out to tell a story can we know where it will end? And when we go to the Carnivale, will the simple putting on of a costume turn us into different people? And if there is a party going on, up among the stars, might we win a ticket to attend? And we take a look into an undetermined future, and react to an unexpected present. Uncertainties, and endings are what all the stories in Doubtful Outcomes touch upon, but do they have the last word? Many of these tales have been published and performed, in e-zines, printed magazines, an anthology or two, and by Liars League in London and Hong Kong. A few are previously unseen. Several are prize winners, or have been shortlisted in competitions. Brindley Hallam Dennis lives on the edge of England where he writes short fiction and (as Mike Smith), poetry, plays and essays on adaptation and on the short story form.
