Gone With the Window

My very short story Gone With the Window is also out today at the fabulously-named Quotidian Bagatelle. This story was previously published in Scots a few years back, and is one of two stories of mine that are scheduled to appear on this daily webzine in the next few weeks.

Romeo and the Cuban Robots

A bit if a flurry of stories this month! The Spanish translation of Romeo and the Robots appears today in the new issue of Cuban magazine Korad. 

This is the third language for this story, my second story in Korad, and my 22nd story in Spanish. This is actually the Sept-Dec 2025 issue, but it's been rather delayed.

The Camel Goes to Argentina

The Spanish translation of my story Englebert is out today at Argentinian webzine Microficciones y Cuentos. This is the 12th language for this camel-related story.

Feast or Famine?

The anthology Feast or Famine? is now out, and includes my Jack Vance-style story Season of the Slumwort. All of the stories in the anthology centre around food in some way. In my case it's the eponymous slumwort, which is an unappetizing cabbagelike vegetable that appears all too often throughout the story.

Romeo and the Persian Robots

 My short story Romeo and the Robots has been accepted by Farsi (Persian) webzine Metaphor Space. This makes four languages for this story and will be my third story in Farsi.

Romanian Ogres

The fifth and final of my Yorick stories, Ogres, Beavers and Other Mythical Creatures, has been accepted by Romanian magazine Galaxia 42. That's the whole series now available in Hungarian and Romanian. It's due to appear in the June issue.

Romanian Web

Two years after it was accepted, the Romanian translation of my story World Wire Web is out today in the new issue of ArtZone SF magazine. 

This is the 4th language for this story, my 3rd story in this magazine and my 12th story in Romanian altogether.

Living on the Edge of Polish

The Polish translation of my story Living on the Edge of Darkness is out in the latest issue of Nowa Fantastyka. 

This is the third language for this story, my second story in this magazine and my fifth story in Polish.

Hear You Scream in Hungarian

The Hungarian translation of my novelette Hear You Scream is out in the new issue of Galaktika magazine. It's the first translation of this story, and my twelfth story to appear in this magazine.

This is the story in which the main character is deaf and there is no reference to sound in the entire story.

A Hole Lot of News

Happy to announce that I've sold my short story A Hole Lot of News (spelled deliberately like that) to the anthology The Big Book of Quantum Fiction. It shares the same setting as my story In Response to Your Reader - the small community of the Caer Valley, after the mysterious Isolation Event.

I have a few other ideas for the same setting...
