Fiction

My fiction writing spans from very short flash pieces, to slow-burning stories that readers have described as “slow accrual of sensory detail,” and “deeply complicated endings.”

My stories have been longlisted for the Peter Hinchcliffe Fiction Award and shortlisted in Broken Pencil’s ‘Deathmatch’ contest, and my flash fiction piece “A Move” won the Frances Thomas Memorial Flash Fiction Award. I am featured in Best Short Fictions 2023.
