'My Kitchen My Space' appears in r.kv.r.y.

I read excerpts from My Kitchen My Space at the Lekhana Literary Weekend; the paragraph about the effect the protagonist thinks the teflon coating of the saucepan will have on her children and the final section, where she raises a saucepan to smash it into her mother-in-law's face. 

The story is now out in the remarkable magazine, r.kv.r.y. alongside work from Anthony Doerr (one of my favourite short fiction writers) and Yu-Han Chao.

Woo hoo!!

Here's the letter from the Mslexia short story competition stating that 'The Boil' was one of fifty  shortlisted entries from among a large number. 

In 2010, 'Should I Weep', which is published in Eclectica, was shortlisted for the Mslexia competition themed Into the Deep.
