For the first of this new series from Salt Publishing, Nicholas Royle read through magazines, anthologies, online journals and national newspapers published during 2010 to find his favourite short stories.
I’m so grateful to Nicholas for picking my story Dinner of the Dead Alumni, which was first published in Riptide Volume 5. It’s a supernatural romp through Cambridge, following a man chasing a woman in search of spontaneous orgasm.
