My Story in Best of British SF

This has been on my bucketlist for ages! I’ve had a story accepted to the awesome NewCon Press collection “Best of British SF 2022” edited by Donna Scott.

The story? It’s from “Under the Moon: Collected Speculative Fiction” – and it’s one of my faves. The Amelioration of Existence in Spite of Truth and Reconciliation is a mouthful, but it’s a memorable title, even if for the wrong reasons.

This story is where my site tagline “Spaceships and Feelings” came from. It’s a quintessentially me story, and is suprisingly cosy, given the title.

It’s about a lot of things, but I hope it actually provides my own answer for the question, “what is the meaning of existence?”
