Welcome to '''Dashipedia'''. This resource is intended to throw some light on the creative process behind [http://www.jonathanpinnock.com Jonathan Pinnock]'s short story collection ''[[Dot Dash]]''. 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, [http://www.jonathanpinnock.com/wiki_mrsdarcy/index.php?title=Main_Page Wikis can be fun].
The inspiration behind each of the stories in the book may be found here (insofar as the author can remember it), along with any unusual trivia and/or amusing anecdotes.
