A Breath of Spanish Air

 The Spanish translation of my dieselpunk story A Breath of Fresh Air is out today at Argentinian webzine Microficciones y Cuentos. This is the first translation of this story, which was originally published a year ago in Black Cat Weekly magazine.

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.

Living on the Edge of Spanish

The Spanish translation of my story Living on the Edge of Darkness is out today at Microficciones y Cuentos. This is the first translation of this story, and my twentieth story in Spanish. 

Those of you with a good memory will remember I already announced my twentieth story in Spanish, but that one hasn't been published yet, so will end up being number 21.

Twentieth Spanish Story

 The Spanish translation of my short story Never Talk to Strangers is out now in Argentine-based webzine Microficciones y Cuentos. 

This story has only been published in Welsh before, but the English version is also due to be published soon. It's my fifth story at Microficciones y Cuentos and my twentieth story in Spanish altogether.

Romeo and the Spanish Robots

 My short story Romeo and the Robots has been accepted by Cuban magazine Korad to be translated into Spanish for their next issue. This will be the first translation of this story, my second story in Korad and my nineteenth story in Spanish altogether.

Spanish Reprint Accidentally Saves the Earth from Alien Conquest

 I discovered today that a reprint of the Spanish translation of my short story Five Ways to Accidentally Save the Earth from Alien Conquest was published in the May-Aug 2025 issue of Cuban speculative fiction magazine Korad.

This is the third appearance of this Spanish translation, and the story's eighth appearance altogether.

The Spanish Week of Quarantine

 The Spanish translation of my short story The Second Week of Quarantine is out today at Argentine-based webzine  Microficciones y Cuentos. 

This is the third translation of this story after German and Hindi, and my eighteenth story in Spanish.

Five Kind-of Reprints

Five of my translations have been re-published this month, though they're probably not technically a reprint.

The Spanish translations of Frozen, Cat Burglar and Launch have been published at Microficciones y Cuentos, which is a replacement site for Sinergia, where they first appeared a few months back.

Also re-appearing are two Romanian translations that appeared in ArtZone SF magazine and have now both been posted on their new website. Both Observers and In Response to Your Reader are there, now accompanied by fabulous illustrations.

Spanish Launch

The Spanish translation of my 100-word story Launch appears on Argentinian blog Sinergia today, the third story to appear there.

This story has been published in English before, and a Scottish Gaelic translation appears on this blog.

This is my 17th story and 24th publication in Spanish.

Correction - This is the Final Publication of the Year!

 My flash fiction story Cat Burglar is out now in Argentina-based blog Sinergia, topping off the year at fifteen publications.

This is the first translation for this story and my sixteenth story in Spanish.

Frozen in Argentina

The Spanish translation of my flash fiction story Frozen now appears in Argentina-based ezine Sinergia.  It's edited by Sergio Gaut vel Hartman, who published several of my stories in Spanish a number of years ago. In fact, as a lesson in patience to my fellow authors, Sergio had actually accepted this story for one of his previous ezines before it went on hiatus. It has now finally been published fifteen years after being accepted.

This is the first translation of this story. It has been published in English, and was the first story I converted into comic strip script, which was then illustrated and published in Murky Depths magazine.

It's my fifteenth story published in Spanish.

Spanish Anthology Award

The anthology Cuentos para Algernon: Ano X, which includes the Spanish translation of my story Five Ways to Accidentally Save the Earth from Alien Conquest' has won the Ignotus award for Best Anthology.

The Ignotus awards are the premier Spanish speculative fiction awards. Along with the other 12 authors and the editor, this means I can happily claim one fourteenth of the award.

Five Ways to a Spanish Reprint

 A reprint of the Spanish translation of my story Five Ways to Accidentally Save the Earth from Alien Conquest is included in the year 10 anthology of Cuentos para Algernon.

That's the sixth appearance for this story in a year.

Five Spanish Ways

The Spanish translation of my short story Five Ways to Accidentally Save the Earth from Alien Conquest is out today at Cuentos para Algernon. This is the fifth language for this story, and my thirteenth story in Spanish.

Five Ways to Spain

 Rather excitingly, my short story Five Ways to Accidentally Save the Earth from Alien Conquest will now also be published in Spanish, in the webzine Cuentos para Algernon, sometime in a month or so.

This will be the fifth language for this story, and my 13th story in Spanish.

Escapades in Argentina

 I'm rather pleased that my short story Escapades in Time has been published by Argentinian webzine Axxon and now appears in issue 295.

The story first appeared in audio form on the Tall Tale TV podcast and has also been published in Galician at Nova Fantasia. This is my twelfth story in Spanish.

Spanish Mole Rats

The Spanish translation of my story The Righteous Indignation of the Naked Mole Rat is now on line at Argentinian magazine La Idea Fija.

This is my 2nd story in that magazine and my 11th story in Spanish.

Spanish Review

A nice review on Smashwords of my short story collection Paralelismos:

Un gran descubrimiento. Me ha encantado, es un libro de ciencia ficcion al 100%, me ha enganchado des de el primer momento. Las historias son inmersiva y te metes de lleno en ellas. Se desarrollan todas con un ritmo perfecto que te mantiene sumergido de principio a fin, quedándote con ganas de más.

Which roughly translates as:

A great find. I was delighted, it's a science fiction book 100%, I was hooked from the first moment. The stories are immersive and you get right into them. All are developed with perfect rhythm that keeps you immersed from beginning to end, leaving you wanting more.

Paralelismos Out Now
