CHANNILLO
Series Description:
We all know about the genius of Shakespeare, but what about the stories he didn't write? The stories of his characters once the play is over. What happens to them then? How do they live with the consequences of the play?
Do Kate and Petruchio ('The Taming of the Shrew') stay together? How long before they split? What about the two girls from 'As You Like It', who make such unsuitable, if romantic, marriages? What happens when the stardust wears off?
From the wreckage at the end of 'Othello' one character emerges, determined not to make the same mistakes as his mentor. And in a chilly mausoleum another man of power takes his own life.
'The Stories Shakespeare Didn't Write' follows these, and other, characters and seeks to answer some of the questions. And you don't even need to know the plays.....

Notes:
Some of the stories in 'Not William' first appeared in The Story Bazaar Readers' Club and were published in The Story Bazaar Compendium 2015. These were 'Padua Road', 'Mausoleum' and 'Seeds'.
