Some time ago, the wonderful Manuela Timofte, Editor at Gobblers and Masticadores, set me an interview to complete. I’m not one who enjoys talking about himself, but just for once did. Manuela has now published my answers to her questions HERE!
I hope you find my words interesting and that they cast a slightly different light on my work.
Thanks for reading

Written for Tourmaline .’s Halloween Challenge
Today’s prompt was Scream.
There were divisions. Some might have termed them fractures. Everyone wanted everything, and no one wanted to pay. The silence of society’s splintering echoed a dire nothingness. I liked the quiet.
The flyers flew with wings for arms. The walkers walked on exaggerated legs. Some swam, like the almost-fish they were. A few even rolled. I glided.
Everyone ignored me, and I ignored them, as they left in their ships of steel and stardust. No one remained. That’s when I realised I was already dead, and even then, hadn’t a clue as to how long. I got the better deal.
Thank you for reading
