ADAM MAXWELL'S FICTION LOUNGE

A Great Place to Lounge

Member: Fanton

I’ve only been a member of the Web Fiction Guide for about a week, and already I’m unearthing previously undiscovered treasures.

Take Adam Maxwell’s Fiction Lounge, for example. A beautifully presented site comprising a wonderful selection of short stories, essays and podcasts by the titular wordsmith.

Adam’s writing is brilliantly entertaining, and darkly comic, as seen in stories such as These Were Your Grandmother’s, Let’s Get Kraken and A Beginner’s Guide to Stalking. The author has a very clear and distinctive style and voice, and it is little wonder that he won the Daily Telegraph’s short story competition in August for his fantastically morbid tale, Anthropomorphic Taxidermy.

A site well worth visiting, and a writer well worth keeping an eye on, I think.
