Ode to a Reprint

I'm very pleased to have sold a reprint of my futuristic farming story Ode to An Earthworm to Terrific Tomorrows, an anthology of optimistic SF. It was first published in the anthology Looking Landward a few years ago. It's due to be published next month.




Shockingly, this story has never appeared in translation! I must rectify that...

Novelette Acceptance

My novelette Hear You Scream has been accepted for publication by Farthest Star Publishing, who produce stand-alone e-book and paperback editions. I've seen some of their previous titles and they look great, so I'm very excited about this.

The main character in this story is deaf, so I've written the entire story with no sound whatsoever. No publication date confirmed as yet.

My story Englebert appears on Telugu literary website Saaranga Saaranga today. In a classic case of 'lost in translation' it has been published in English, not in Telugu.
