The Seventh Free Earth Girl short story – Part one!
As I posted earlier, the final short story in the Earth 2788 collection was delayed by two things. The death of my computer, and the story deciding to rebel and turn into a novelette.
I’ve now posted the first part of the novelette, Kappa Sector 2788, and there will be three more parts appearing over the next three weeks.
This novelette features Colonel Riak Torrek. Read it here!

Apologies for the delay on the final short story.
I’d aimed to post the final short story in the Earth 2788 collection today, but I’m afraid that’s got to be delayed because of two things beyond my control. Firstly, my computer has succumbed to the strain of producing a whole trilogy and has been slowly dying over the last two weeks. Secondly, the final short story has rebelled and decided to turn into a novelette. So apologies for the delay, but you should get an extra long story as compensation.

The Sixth Free Earth Girl Short Story
I’ve now put the sixth story in the EARTH 2788 collection up on my website. This one is Alpha Sector 2788. Those who’ve read EARTH GIRL were probably expecting this to feature Dalmora, which it does, but there’s another familiar character appearing too. You can read the short story here. Artwork is by Alex Storer thelightdream.net
I’ve also sent out the latest newsletter. Since there’s only one short story left to appear on the website, this newsletter is talking about other possible projects, and asking readers for feedback on which would most interest them. If you’d like to join this conversation, then just sign up for the newsletter.

FantasyCon 2014 York UK
FantasyCon 2014 in York, UK, is only a week away now. I’ll be there, so if you’re there too then please say hello.
If you can’t spot me anywhere else, I’ll be on a panel on Saturday morning at 11, and I’ll be at the mass signing. Remember you don’t need a physical book to come to the book signing. I know a lot of people have been reading the Earth Girl trilogy on ebook, so you’re welcome to just come to the book signing for a chat.

Had a great time at LonCon3 meeting readers of the Earth Girl trilogy.
Had a great time at LonCon3 meeting readers of the Earth Girl trilogy. Earth Flight was only published in the UK on Thursday, so I was deeply impressed that some had already read it!
