The Long Shot

I made some interactive fiction! Check it out here. It’s less Adventure Call and more of a financial management game embedded in a couple of sci-fi concepts. Maximum play through length comes in less than 4,000 words so I guess average playing time would be 15-20 minutes. I made it using Choice Script, which was […]Read Post ›

New Story: Rock Hard Place

I have a new story up at Daily Science Fiction! It’s my third publication there, and the first with a conventional narrative structure. It’s a good example of the short stories I like to write these days – very short, psychological sci-fi in the vein of Philip K Dick. I have a few others like […]Read Post ›

Inktober 2021

My writing buddies at GSFWC wrote a prompt list for Inktober, to be used as inspiration for drawings, writings or whatever creative itch they set a-tingling in one’s skin. I started off in a fairly impulsive, tongue in cheek direction, but things evolved into a bigger narrative (still with tongue firmly in cheek) Drawing’s clearly […]Read Post ›

2017 round up

I’ve not blogged as an author before, so I’ve not done a year-end round-up before. Now here I am, rounding up a year of many things I’ve done this year that I’ve never done before. I’ve been writing seriously (writing with sincerity anyway) for the last 10 years. Its been a largely introverted pursuit. I […]Read Post ›

Space Oddity

  Amateur astronomers of the western hemisphere will be brandishing their homemade telescopes at the night sky next weekend, in likely fruitless attempts to catch a once in a century glimpse of the only known non human life outwith the earth’s atmosphere. The bounty of their ill equipped search however, is not your usual extra-terrestrial, […]Read Post ›
