Welcome to Dashipedia. This resource is intended to throw some light on the creative process behind Jonathan Pinnock's short story collections Dot Dash and Dip Flash. In many ways, this is nothing more than a vain (in more than one sense) attempt to burnish the reputation of the author as a writer of short fiction. However, it is also possible that some may find it interesting and, indeed, instructive.

Also, Wikis can be fun.

The inspiration behind each of the stories in the books may be found here (insofar as the author can remember it), along with any unusual trivia and/or amusing anecdotes.
