Thrilled to say my second short story collection is coming out with NewCon Press!
These Broken Little Words contains science fiction, fantasy, speculative fiction short stories, of varying lengths and themes. As usual, I found it hard to stick to a script.
There are some brand-new stories, published nowhere else, and some old faves, including the BSFA award-winning and British Fantasy Award shortlisted short story, “Godzilla as a Young Man Named Mike”, among many others.
If you enjoyed “Under the Moon“, you might be interested to know this book does not share the same thesis (this time, the protagonists are of varying genders), but they all share a certain outlook.
Things Get Broken. Things Get Made Anew.
There are even some Aussie themed stories!
It was a privilege to be asked by Ian Whates of NewCon to be in his Polestar series of collections. You should check out all the other amazing editions while you’re at it, there are some of the finest women writing SFFH* in Britain.
Special edition signed hardbacks
There is also an option for a glossy hardback version, numbered and signed by me. These are very limited in number however, so get yours soon!
