A Bridgwater writer’s work has been published in a collection of stories on the West Somerset Railway.
Joe Tiernan, of Halesleigh Road, has written A Special Delivery for the book Ticket To Read.
The book is a selection of 16 short stories that will make you think, laugh and give readers a glimpse of life on and around the West Somerset Railway.
He is part of a Somerset-based writers’ group that came up with the idea to write a book surrounding a local tourist attraction.
Joe said: “We approached the West Somerset Railway and they thought it was a good idea.
“It has been a really good experience writing the story. The group writes about anything.
“I enjoy writing black humour stories and there are parts of this in my story.”
The book is on sale on a trial basis at Bridgwater Bookshop and Joe will be signing copies of Ticket To Read at the Quantock Gateway on Thursday, September 16 from 6.30pm.
The book is also on sale by e-mailing writers@f2s.com
