For Will Kemp, survival has many guises. It can be overt and physical – the confrontation of an illegal activity, fleeing thugs, running through enemy territory.It can also mean overcoming psychological demands – seeking love against the odds, beating phobias, running a business, all requiring resilience and mental dexterity.
Writer Will explores such forms in his debut collection of short stories, published next week. Surviving Larkin And Other Stories is a collection of fourteen tales exploring the challenges life presents and the many ways we battle through. 'We live in very difficult uncertain times and I hope the theme of survival in this collection is relevant to people’s lives and may help them,” says Will, who lives near Tadcaster.
So things were tricky, but nevertheless I’ve always harboured this passion for writing.' His career has seen him work in teaching, planning and surveying, but evenings and weekends, he’d always be found with a pen in hand. Then, nearing 15 years ago, Will, now 59, won a competition that led to a collection of his poetry being published. Further collections followed, but he was keen to show he was a diverse writer. Will hopes his short story collection will do just that.
