Exciting to see that Australia’s long-running Aurealis magazine has published my story “The Sculptor” in their new issue #154, with a cool illustration by Simon Walpole.
The table of contents can be seen on their website Aurealis.com, with links to purchase the ebook on Smashwords.com and download in your preferred format (epub, mobi, pdf etc). Also available at Kobo.com or Barnesandnoble.com, if you prefer.
A review of the fiction in the issue is available at Tangentonline.com.
I’ve been quiet on here, and on social media generally, for some while. The political situation in the UK and worldwide has plummeted to new lows, and in that context it has seemed incongruous to comment on the latest Thor movie.
Nevertheless, I have continued to write, and the first fruits of that labour will be appearing soon, with two new novelettes due to be published in the not-too-distant future. What a treat for me, with one of the stories to be published in Australia’s long-running Aurealis, and the other in the new online incarnation of Interzone (which continues in print as well as online). I also answered some interview questions put to me by Interzone’s new editor, Gareth Jelley. More news on all of this in the near future.
