I have a short story in this collection, which is centered around the theme of community. Ebook on amazon for $3.99. The small press publisher is a registered social enterprise in the UK, meaning they operate in socially responsible ways.

Whitby has such a strong literary heritage it's wonderful that it now has its own literary festival and what a fabulous event it was! Congratulations @whitbylitfest.org.uk on a true triumph.

Hello World 😀 A bit late for 2025, but we're setting up here on Bluesky as we know there are quite a few writers here! We'd love to connect. For those who don't know us, Whitby Lit Fest launched in 2025, bringing a wonderful array of literary stars to Whitby.

First ever Whitby Lit Fest starts today and I'll be there at a pop-up bookstall on Saturday representing @inspiredquill.bsky.social - Saturday also happens to be Bram Stoker's birthday.

My publisher is seeking stories, essays and poetry on the theme of hope, resistance, and human connection for a new anthology. This is in response to the rise of global authoritarianism, social division, and political violence.
