News (May 2013)

Fragmented, my collection of short stories about London was published in 2011 by Cinnamon Press (partly funded by an Arts Council grant).  Fragmented charts a personal journey from 1970s squatter to life in Hackney now.  Fragmented is widely available.  It is also on Kindle and may be downloaded from Amazon.  My second collection will be published by Cinnamon Press in 2014.

A new short story is in the current issue of The Frogmore Papers.  'Tricks' is in Goldfish, the online literary magazine of Goldsmiths, University of London.  My literary agent Christopher Sinclair-Stevenson has sent my crime novel Entanglement to a publisher.  I am working on a collection of very short fiction, Beyond the Gates. Two of my poems are on the online magazine website Morphrog.

I am reading at The Poetry Café on Wednesday 15 May, 7pm, as part of a celebration for the The Frogmore Papers on its thirtieth anniversary (28 Betterton Street WC2).

My poem 'Tilbury' is in London Rivers, a limited edition illustrated anthology from Paekakariki Press.  The poems are handset in 12pt Garamond and printed (both text and illustration) on the Heidelberg KS cylinder printing press (1959). A revised edition of London Rivers will be published in December 2013.

I am on Facebook.
