Read Old Flames on the Web

My short story Old Flames is now available to read on the Daily Science Fiction website.

Gunthar sat in stoic silence, a woolen blanket folded over his lap, facing the fireplace. Ada set her basket of fabric and lace onto the frayed rug and eased herself into the chair next to his, pulling it closer to the fire.

He kept his eyes on the flickering flames. “So, it’s over?”

Old Flames sold to Daily Science Fiction

My flash fiction story Old Flames has been picked up by Daily Science Fiction. This is the second story I’ve sold to DSF and both are fantasy/fairy tale stories. Maybe I should write more of them.

The story will first be sent to subscribers of their daily email, then a week later it will appear on their website and the following month it will be available on the Kindle. Yay!

Accepted for Colinthology

My short story Looking for a Knight in Shining Armor will appear in the Colin Harvey Memorial Anthology “Colinthology”. Sales will go to the charity Above and Beyond, benefiting Bristol’s local hospitals.

You Fly Like a Woman now available on Amazon

Getting a pilot’s license was the furthest thing from her mind – until an ex-RAF instructor suggested that she wasn’t competent to do so. The thing is, he could be right. Sylvia has just a few weeks to prove that she can fly as well as any man.

You Fly Like a Woman tells the story of one woman’s search for confidence as she stumbles into a man’s world.

You Fly Like a Woman is now available as an ebook from Amazon.

Foreign Flavours Anthology now available

My short story, Excerpt from The Geusian Ladies Society Food InfoManual, is included in this charity anthology by the Writers Abroad online writing group.

“The anthology takes as its theme food, drink and recipes from around the world. It is a tantalizing collection of fiction and non-fiction, full of spice and flavour and sprinkled with mouth-watering recipes. The wide-ranging, sometimes bittersweet, contributions show how adaptable an ex-pat has to be to leave familiar dishes behind and venture into the culinary unknown.”

The anthology is available on Lulu now: Foreign Flavours by Writers Abroad in Literature & Fiction. All proceeds will go to The Book Bus.
