Harry Downey

BIOGRAPHY

Harry Downey is a Dorset based, retired antiques dealer within weeks of his 90th birthday. More than 50 of his short stories have been published in print or online magazines, with most of them included in two anthologies. 'The biter bit' and 'Time for a short.' Also published is a crime novel – 'Tie a yellow ribbon'. Hopefully there will be newly printed copies available soon.

Harry is making his writing comeback after a difficult couple of years, which ended with the recent death of his wife. He hopes to continue writing long enough to complete a third volume of short stories.
