He walks forward, and suddenly it is as though the earth falls away. He is on the bridge with<br />

no idea as to how he got there, but it does not matter.<br />

No.<br />

Nothing matters but the other side <strong>of</strong> the mist, and all that it holds…<br />

And we’re <strong>of</strong>f!<br />

Hello, and welcome to the maiden edition <strong>of</strong> Tales From The Other Side. This is what happens<br />

when you have too much talent with no harness. What happens is that this talent says “You<br />

know what, Forget this! Time to fly!” And then it promptly jumps <strong>of</strong>f the cliff.<br />

What happens next, well, that depends on the view <strong>of</strong> those who see. ‘It’s a Bird! No, it’s a<br />

Plane. No, it’s…’<br />

You get the drift.<br />

Tales from the other side is as eclectic a collection as you will find. It is filled with stories that<br />

are not afraid to break the mould, to take risks. <strong>Stories</strong> that have been hiding in the Other Side<br />

for too long and are now ready to burst forth.<br />

And the most awesome part <strong>of</strong> all this is that each and every story you are about to read, is<br />

true. At least to the writers. After all, who are we but Messengers and Tale-bearers?<br />

So come on in, and at the end <strong>of</strong> it all, I will take you to meet the gang.<br />
