My first Drabble in 100-Foot Crow

Posted on October 16, 2024 by Michael

Very excited to see my tiny, 100 word story/instruction manual/program? appear in 100-Foot Crow today. I really enjoyed writing something so short. It was like obsessing over a puzzle. Every time I thought I had the right words there would be too many. But finally, well, here it is, available to read for free.

My 6th and final appearance in the wonderful Metaphorosis Magazine

Posted on July 9, 2024 by Michael

I was very sad to find out that Metaphorosis Magazine would finish up after its 100th issue later this year. Metaphorosis’ creator and editor, Morris, has been an amazing supporter, publishing six of my stories in his magazine and another three in anthologies. And each time he provided really helpful editing, with insightful suggestions that greatly improved my stories and my writing in general.

For the last year of Metaphorosis Magazine, Morris has invited 12 authors he enjoyed working with to write one final story for the magazine. This is my contribution, Colossus. I’m very honoured to see it appear in issue number 99. All the best to Morris with his own writing and future projects. Colossus can be read or listened to for free here.

My first appearance in Every Day Fiction

Posted on February 15, 2024 by Michael

My horror micro fiction, Excision, has been published in Every Day Fiction. They were a great magazine to work with, with some really helpful suggestions from their editors. I’m very pleased with the final product. Every Day Fiction allows readers to rate their stories, and so far, people seem to like this one which makes me very happy. In fact, it’s currently the top-rated horror short story in the magazine! Excision can be found here.
