I’m teaching a short story workshop for Portsmouth BookFest on 1st March. First-timers and experienced writers alike are welcome. Tickets are only £5.50, available here.

Two more short stories added to the site – my award-winner ‘Red, Noir’ and my third-placer ‘The Worm’. Enjoy!

My second novel, Gifts of Anger, is officially published today!

The culmination of five years of the environmental writing project Pens of the Earth, our book, Wild Seas, Wilder Cities is published on 21st October 2024. You can read all about it here.
