I won @NorthernLifeMag short story contest! "Marched Away" is available now online & will be printed in the next edition. Read if you like contemporary sci-fi, starring a robot pony and a classic British song.

Writers:
If you saw a stranger in a café/restaurant/public transit/etc reading your self-published book, would you go to them and introduce yourself as the author?
i really fucking despise this asinine belief that live action is inherently superior to animation, or makes something more of a “real movie”. hollywood keeps pushing it and people keep eating it up. this is nothing more than an insult to a great film and the medium it was made in
Ok. This might be controversial.
But I think it is morally problematic to change published authors’ works after they die to make their social attitudes more palatable. It’s covering up the truth and parts of history that, while nasty or wrong, need to be read.

In the UK, authors receive a small compensation when their books are checked out of the library. This means you can read a book FOR FREE while also supporting the author. Use your local library!
