'Disappearing Act' in Dead Housekeeping

Thrilled to have Disappearing Act in the fine Dead Housekeeping, a journal that looks at loss through the lens of home management. With micro essays.

Dead Housekeeping editors include the wonderful Shabnam Nadiya who gave us such a bold and extraordinary piece of writing for the March 2015 issue of Out of Print.

My piece, like many on Dead Housekeeping, blurs, or rather, perforates the boundaries between essay fiction imagination extension.

'The Embryotic' in Cosmonauts Avenus

Rather thrilled that The Embryotic appears in the very cool Cosmonauts Avenue.

This story has been through a bit of an evolution. In a previous incarnation, it was called The Boil and was shortlisted in the 2012 Mslexia short story competition.
