Expenses Claim for Snowdonia Bigfoot Expedition
My non-prose story Expenses Claim for Snowdonia Bigfoot Expedition is out today in issue #51 of Neon Literary Magazine.

Three Vietnamese Stories
Three of my short stories have been published in Vietnamese this week at ZZZ Review, all translated by Do Quyen:
Englebert, which has previously been published in English and Hungarian.
The Gondolier: the 19th language this has been published in and, including the translations posted on this site, its 50th language altogether!
The Righteous Indignation of the Naked Mole Rat, which has previously been published and podcast in English and also published in Spanish and Estonian.
Vietnamese is my thirtieth published language!
