This is another long short story (about 20000 words). It’s also a return to Sci-Fi, which is no great surprise as that is mainly what I write. But that’s enough from me. Take a look and see what you think of Scrap And Bone. “Just how long is it ‘til we get to this HelenContinue reading “Scrap And Bone”

Story day is here! But first I just want to talk about the inspiration behind this story. It’s quite simple really. This story was written because of all the leaks that now occur. In this case I’m referring mainly to the games industry, but it applies to media across the board. Anyway, hope you enjoyContinue reading “Spoil And Leak”
Blurb: Spoil And Leak

A pair of software developers angry when they find out their bosses have taken credit for their latest idea, and all the workContinue reading “Blurb: Spoil And Leak”
