Geoff Torment's Extraordinary Lives

A couple of these (Fetherton Prett and Chilton Downis) first appeared in the short-lived Crackin' magazine. It's an ongoing project , and we will add entries as we come up with them.

They are all written by and are the copyright of Paul Oswell and Paul Garside. The excellent illustrations are by and are the copyright of Graeme McMillan.

In 2003, the entry Malachi of Hereford won Honourable Mention in the Mona Schrieber Prize for Short Humorous Fiction.
