I'm a learner at heart and have taken numerous writing courses, including the Faber Academy's Writing a Novel and the Six Month Novel by Urban Writer's Retreat.
During the former I wrote a science fiction novel, Three Orders of Magnitude, which is currently biding its time in a drawer. In the latter I wrote a mystery novel, The Spoils, which I'm currently editing with my agent. A version of The Spoils (under the title The Inheritance Game) was longlisted for the TLC Pen Factor competition and the Grindstone Novel Prize in 2021.
In the meantime, check out a few of my flash stories for Paragraph Planet (daily 75-word stories), my Primadonna Festival Flash Fiction Prize-winning story, and my spin on The Moth (true storytelling nights and podcast). I was also shortlisted for the Margery Allingham Short Mystery Competition 2025 for the story Only Forward, which you can read here.
