In addition to translating and proofreading, I spend a lot of time writing for pleasure, too. In recent years, that’s meant taking an interest in flash fiction in particular – very short stories, from 50 to 1500 words, that suit the reduced attention spans of the 21st century.

Links to all my published but uncollected works can be found on my linktree page.

In the past I also dabbled in poetry, and you can find some of my efforts in the blog section of this site – along with a mixture of other pieces of fiction and non-fiction. Enjoy!

‘Mars & More’, my debut collection of flash science fiction stories, was released in September 2024 – fifty tales in all, including seven not previously published anywhere.

By turns comic, tragic, uplifting and disturbing, it will immerse you in worlds of the possible future, where much has changed but much remains the same. From explorers and pioneers to scientists and manual labourers, from an augmented assassin to a femme fatale in a non-stop nightspot, the characters and stories here are sure to pique your imagination.
