It’s been three months since I last shared story news with you good people and I’m delighted to say that I’ve sold a number of stories in that time, mostly to Hawk & Cleaver’s The Other Stories Podcast. Here’s what I’ve sold and where you can listen to each.

I’ve also just sold ‘Uxoricide 93%’ to The Other Stories for their forthcoming ‘genetics’ theme and last month sold ‘The Boy in the Penguin Costume’ for their ‘strange inheritance’ theme bringing my published stories for the year, including my novella, The Girl in the Video, to eight so just two off my goal for the year with six months to go. Not bad for my first full year as a parent.
Oh, and my wife, Joanna Baldwin, sold a story to The Other Stories, too. Check out ‘Routine’ by Joanna Baldwin.
In other news, after my health scares a couple of months back I’m continuing to recover. I feel healthy and optimistic about the future—long may it continue.
Have a great day, friends!
