Born on the ancient island of Sardinia, Italy, Sarah is a short story writer now based in Canterbury, England. When she is not writing, she is most likely reading Japanese locked-room murder mysteries or 19th Century classics. Her work has been featured in The Graveyard Zine, Drip Literary Magazine and The Afterpast Review (Instagram: @ashortstoryteller).

"Liberty" is about the complex relationship that people born and raised on islands have with their native land. Is it possible for islanders to build a new life on a mainland across the sea and break completely free from the motherland? 

Liberty

Inspiration behind 'The Dream' was my experience with Maladaptive Daydreaming, a (in my opinion, perhaps because my case is not as severe as this story's main character's) fascinating, psychological behaviour that interferes with one's everyday life.
