Release day! Turned to Stone

My latest short story, Turned to Stone , is now available to purchase on Amazon Kindle worldwide, for less than a cup of coffee. I hope you'll give it a try, and if you enjoy it, I'd love to read your review.

Turned to Stone is not only a story about a statue in a garden, it's also a story about long lost love, and in particular it's about how one woman's whole life was affected by an experience in her youth.

It's a mystery, a tragedy, and a love story.

It's release day! The Man in the Photograph is now available on Kindle at Amazon

My latest short story, "The Man in the Photograph" is now available on Kindle worldwide.

It's one of the longest short stories I've ever written, and is inspired by my day job. This is the closest I have come to writing a courtroom drama.

"The Man in the Photograph" deals with themes of domestic abuse, parental alienation, etc.

It is quite a tragic tale. As with all fiction, there is some exaggeration of reality to help convey certain messages.

Out now: FIRE - my latest short story
























If you enjoy reading short stories, I have a new one out this month. FIRE originally appeared in my collection "Pieces of a Rainbow", which was the first short story collection I released, back in 2009.

I recently decided to rewrite the stories and republish the collection. I've always liked these stories and it felt like the right time to republish them as the collection has been out of print for a while. I am currently working through the rewrites one story at a time and releasing them individually on Kindle.

The first story, "Seeing Red" was released last month: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BQ7F83XN/



"Fire" is now available on Kindle at Amazon worldwide. You don't need to own a Kindle eReader to enjoy Kindle books, just download the app from Amazon and read the stories on your PC, laptop, smartphone, etc.
