Embark on a literary adventure

Welcome to Cloud Sneezing, where imagination takes flight. A collection of writing; about women, by women, this book highlights the trials and triumphs of female main characters, and explores the highs and lows of human resilience. 

Introduction

Cloud Sneezing is more than just a book, it's an experience; for us anyway.

The authors met whilst studying creative writing at the Open University. We formed a group that met to critique each other’s assignments and soon realised that we had a treasure trove of stories about women, written by women. 

Our group had the working title The Sisters of Audacity, which has stuck as a way to describe ourselves—after all, we did
have the audacity to imagine we could do this.

Our aim has never been to create female characters that are
perfect—far from it. However, women, just like men, have their own
unique stories, and here we try to tell some of them. It’s as diverse in content as the women who created it, and we hope you enjoy reading it as much as we’ve enjoyed writing it.
