Short Story Do Not Disturb Wins Second Place in Writing Magazine Competition
Thrilled to announce that my short story about a suicide in a hotel room has won second place in Writing Magazine’s competition. The judges gave it a lovely review, which you can read alongside the story itself here.
Or you can read about a dystopian near-future in which celebrities are cloned for prostitution here.
Or a splinter story from The Horseman’s Dream, which you can read here.
