Hello there!

As the title suggests, I thought I'd provide you all with a brief catch up.

Things are starting to look good on the job front, i.e. a temporary position may be turning into a more permanent one. This is great news for my savings, but less so for my writing habits. I'll have to shuffle my time around and play with my productivity.

In other news, I've recently received an honourable mention from The Booby Prize - a UK-based, international, flash-fiction writing competition. This coming August will be their first to include poetry and illustration too! You'll be able to read my story, as well as others, in the Hall of Fame, or you can find links to my previous entries on my website here.

Also worthy of note, I've received a large number of Spam & Scam emails (updates to my website coming soon). I've also had a few Rejections, one of which was very informative and helpful with a small critique of my work (again, updates to my website coming soon).

Hello there!

I'm new to Friendica, so I thought I'd introduce myself by giving you loads of information, all at once.

I'm a writer from the North of England, UK, and I mostly write about class and social mobility in a sci-fi/fantasy/horror setting. That being said, I recently released a (very) small, (very) short collection of (very) different, (very) short stories. These were, for the most part, entries into online competitions, some of which don't fall into my usual writing style.

Full of Worlds: A Collection of Short Stories was an independent, self-published project, and costs around the price of a cup of coffee. All proceeds go towards my current WIP and debut novel ~ Hiccups Through Time: A Very British Time Travel Story.

You can find Full of Worlds: A Collection of Short Stories as a direct download in my Ko-Fi Shop (with a sneek peek of Hiccups). Or you can find it in other places (such as Amazon) with links provided at my Author Page.

You can also find many useful links at my Linktree

Don't be afraid to say hi. I'd be happy to answer questions about being a writer, a self-published author, or an independent publisher. Or if you just want some general chit-chat, I'm also here for that.
