I wrote a short story called 'Making Tea in the Dark' which references the 1999 London nail bombings. These were a series of three explosions targeted at minority groups which were organised by a militant neo-nazi sympathiser named David Copeland. I created a fictional victim of the attacks and the story follows his mother as she deals with conflicted feelings of isolation, anger and grief. I'm pleased this story has now been published in The Wells Street Journal. On Thursday I read the story aloud at the University of Westminster.
