Sword and Planet!

Do you enjoy fantastic adventures on alien worlds? If so, you'll be interested to learn that my sword and planet tale Cygnus is in the anthology Futures That Never Were from Broadswords and Blasters.

Take a one-way ticket into space...

 ...and discover new worlds in the anthology One-Way Ticket, from Starry-Eyed Press, which includes my story The Angry Planet. Available from Amazon.

It Came From Under The Bed...

 ...is not just what you'll be mumbling tomorrow morning, but also the title of the new anthology from Hiraeth Publishing, featuring my story, No Such Thing as Monsters. Available now from Amazon.

A Cozy Mystery and Winter Horror

 My murder mystery Amongst the Stacks is available now to read on Mystery Tribune and that my story Quiet, Child was awarded second place in the 2022 Dead of Winter competition and will appear on the Toasted Cheese Literary Journal site in March.

Opening England...

 ...is the title of my contribution to the new anthology of Alternate History Short Stories from Flame Tree Publishing. The hardcover collection is already available to order in the UK from Amazon and direct from the publisher, whilst you can pre-order it in the USA and it will be released in March.

Steel True, Blade Straight...

 ...is the new volume from Belanger Books celebrating the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle with stories, poems and scholarship. One half focuses on Sherlock Holmes, the other half on Conan Doyle's other writings (although one of my poems bridges the gap, linking Holmes and the White Company). In total, I have two poems and two stories in this volume.

Winter Wonderland

 My story Unsatisfactory might be more at home in Alice's Wonderland than a wintry one, for it is a little odd, but you can read it in Winter Wonderland 2022.
