Great comments from a clutch of US publishers, but no book deal as yet. Sadly, they all want stories less short, ie novels. Any visiting publisher-lurkers who still love the brief, the bold, the boisterous - please step this way. In the meantime, I've published several stories in magazines such as Product and Chapman, and have put another few up online.
If can spare a second or two, take a dander round the tiny gleaming perfections that are the nanonovels. Or if you're feeling expansive and ready to wriggle deep into your leathreen chair, head for the stories less short.
Some of the nanonovels can also be heard online in mp3 format:
you! yes, you!

stuck story

This year, I'm also writing a series of daily short stories based on random stimuli. Particle fictions are here.
