Short Stories
In 2009, Fforde published a story in the Welsh edition of the UK Big Issue magazine (a magazine distributed by the homeless) called "We are all alike" (previously called "The Man with no face"). He also published "The Locked Room Mystery mystery" in the UK Guardian newspaper in 2007, and this story remains online. The U.S. version of Well of Lost Plots features a bonus chapter (34a) called "Heavy Weather", a complete story in itself, featuring Thursday Next in her position as Bellman.

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or stories:
“However far modern science and technics have fallen short of their inherent possibilities, they have taught mankind at least one lesson: Nothing is impossible.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
“Every one of my friends had a bad day somewhere in her history she wished she could forget but couldn’t. A very bad mother day changes you forever. Those were the hardest stories to tell. . . . “I could still see the red imprint of his little bum when I changed his diaper that night. I stared at my hand, as if they were alien parts of myself . . . as if they had betrayed me. From that day on, I never hit him again.””
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
