EUROCALL: European Association for Computer-Assisted Language Learning Open Writing: Eric Shackle Interviews Himself For His 1000th Story Eric Shackle has been writing for Open Writing Web magazine since April 10th, 2005. His first article was about weird and wonderful letter boxes. Since then he has contributed scores of articles about a huge variety of subjects. We all hope that Eric goes on writing until he's 100 - then for another 10 years after that. Today Eric intervies himself. G'day Eric. About 12 years ago one of my four sons, Ian, emailed a very clever anagram to me. You claim you've written a thousand stories.

In New Zealand: The Press (Christchurch) In Australia: The Queenslander*, Brisbane Courier-Mail and Sunday Mail; Sydney: Daily Telegraph, Truth*,Daily Mirror*, Weekend* *No longer published Have you had any stories published as a freelance?
