Free Stories for Everyone
I've created a collection of four free
short stories in mobi, pdf and epub formats, so hopefully that's every format my readers need.
You can dowload these for free on StoryOrigin in return for a newsletter sign-up. If my newsletters not for you, unsubscribe at anytime. It's no problem.
This is the thing. A reader can get a lot of free books for newsletter sign-ups.
Mournful on a Desolate Ocean: Hell has no fury than a woman scorned, so for pity's sake, don’t let her near your genome, especially if crocodiles are involved.
Glass Future: Would you still get married if you knew it would end in divorce?
Captain Clone: If you’re not real, you can do anything.
Speed of Love: What’s it really like to date an alien?
Four enthralling short stories. Take a break from your day to visit the future, hours away and lightyears gone in your imagination. The future is closer than you think.
Here's mine, click on the picture.

Unexpectedly Enjoying Marketing
I didn't expect to, but I'm rather enjoying learning about marketing for self publishing. There are so many interesting sites to sign up to. All of them seem to have free options.
I do like learning about new things in general. And marketing seems to be like a puzzle. If I do this, what happens? Not much. But, what if I rotate it 90 degrees? Still, not much. But you get the idea that there's potential. I'm working on my newsletter magnet at the mo.
Write in the morning, and then do a dab of marketing in the after. I might even be marketing at very moment.
My questions are thus: marketing, do you like it? And, what have you found that moves the needle the most?

Welcome to the World of Tomorrow
Hello there. I'm glad you found me.
As we're in lockdown, I've been quite busy this last couple of months. Busy working and publishing. And walking. Quite a lot of walking.
Here is a list of all my recently published short stories and collections. Future Tales have four scifi stories. They can be read in 1-2 hours. At the moment everything is exclusive to Amazon.
As I'm a new self publisher, I'm mad for reviews. Apparently they're the bee's knees and the cat's pyjamas. I've got one already, from someone I don't know. That made me very happy. So if you read a story, do consider leaving me a review. And if you want a free copy for review -- just ask.

A Nature Dozen
So wonderful to report that I've had my 12th story published at Nature's Future. This is my favourite venue.
I really am very fond of flash. It can be a joy to right (it can also be like pulling tiny teeth, but let's gloss over that.)
You can read 'Contagion in Tranquil Shades of Grey' online, and in the back of Nature magazine. As a bonus, I get a years supply of Nature. So I'm looking forward to that.
