The Craft of Half-Remembering
My first short story, featuring characters from Songs for Beginners, is published in the the current issue of Mslexia (issue 107) along with an author interview. The story forms part of the Mslexia Showcase on the theme of Blue, judged by author Amy Key.
Rachel McCarron's 'The Craft of Half-Remembering' is a moving story of a woman with dementia grasping for what she knows. I loved this as it was so unusual to read an account of dementia written in the first person... It is a story that reaches towards blue. - Amy Key
”This was my first ever submission of a short story, and I was amazed that it was chosen for Mslexia’s Showcase. I wrote it specifically for the Showcase with the theme of Blue as a starting point. As usual, I started with the final scene and worked towards it. As usual, Neil Harper insisted on a guiding role. But this is Lillian Harper’s story.
