Metaphorosis Magazine released part 1 of my novella, ‘Infinite Possibilities’. Metaphorosis has serialised the story, with the next 3 parts coming out on the last Friday of October, November and December.
This is the longest story I’ve ever had published, and I was very pleased it was with Metaphorosis which has been so supportive of my writing.
If you want to have a read of part 1, or listen to it as a podcast, you can find it here.
This is the first time I’ve appeared in Bourbon Penn, a magazine that I really respect, and that is a home to some great, weird fiction.
I didn’t quite know where Esther would end up when I wrote it. It is a bit of an odd story, but I’m glad it found a home with Bourbon Penn. You can find out more about the magazine here, and you can read my story for free here. A review of Esther is here.
My story, ‘Foundations’, has been selected as a finalist for the Aurealis Award for best Australian horror novella of 2020. This story, my first professional publication, has given me a lot of joy over the last eighteen months, and I’m pleased the judges liked it.
This is the third time I’ve had a story named as a finalist in the Aurealis Awards. Part of me still thinks the first two back in 2018 might have been a mistake or a fluke, so picking this up was amazing. No one writes for awards, but I’ll be honest, it’s a hell of a nice confidence boost to realise a few people out there think you’re doing something decent.
The full list of finalists is here.
