I was delighted to receive an email to say I’d won the Darker Times Fiction, monthly competition for October. I entered two pieces and my story – The Original Mandlebury Ghost Hunt won first prize and the other, Table Decoration, was one of the runners-up.

Both will be in a soon to be released anthology and are available now online on the Darker Times Fiction website.

Darker Times Fiction is run by Jessica Grace Coleman, an author based in Staffordshire, England. It’s excellent. Go and check it out and enter the monthly competition, yourself.

Note … Table Decoration is of a very dark nature. Be warned.

Darker Times Fiction can be found at this link.

Cheers.

Checking Out – My Winning Short Story. Now Online.

Finally, a year after it was first published in Writing Magazine, my short story – Checking Out has been added to the competition showcase on Writers’ Online.

Checking Out, won first prize in Writing Magazine’s monthly competition and below, is a link to the site so you can read my story.

I shall, in the near-future, be putting it on this site as the formatting on Writers’ Online is not great. i.e. They have lost all my paragraph indents.

Checking Out can be found by clicking this link.

Cheers.
