Time Flies

Good grief, life can get in the way of so many things. Family life has taken over what used to be the most important thing in my life - writing - with a demanding two year old now taking up our time, so writing has taken a back seat, as well as other things.
The day job has also made me a very busy individual, not that it's a bad thing because I enjoy my job (not many people can say that), and it's giving me ample opportunities to expand skills and knowledge.

That said, the last few months have been a hive of activity, with the recent release of February Femmes Fatales (Ganglion Press), a collection of delightfully dark stories and poems from some great female writers, with eight stories/poems of mine included. If you like your fiction on the dark side and with a twist, then it's right up your street.

Other anthologies featuring my stories have recently been released, in conjunction with Thirteen Press and Horrified Press, in particular What Lies Beneath, a chilling mix of tales, which features a nasty, skin prickling story from me, called Grub.

Broken has some delicious dark tales, and features one of my favourite short stories, Mending the Broken, with perhaps the most shocking twist I've yet conjured.

And At the Stroke of Thirteen - an anthology through personal invitation only by editors, is headed by comic-book legend Nick Cuti as guest writer. I wrote a story especially for it, called Bait and Chase.

All titles can all be found on Amazon, KOBO and Lulu as digital downloads or in paperback.

Also, my second novel, Red Snow, is with agents, which means I’m in the research stages for the sequel.


One thing is for sure, a writer’s world never stands still.
