Issue five of Innsmouth Free Press was released a couple of days ago. It includes my pulpy Lovecraftian story Beneath The Cold Black Sea.

Really nice cover by M.S. Corley.

You can grab the pdf or read online here.

My short story Me Am Petri appears in this week’s issue of Nature.

Sold another story to Nature yesterday.

Me Am Petri should appear in a couple of months or so, I reckon.

Got my comp copies of Supernatural Tales issue 17 last week. Includes my short story, 13 Nassau Street.

Looks great. Very nice cover by Stephen J. Clarke. Lots of good stories in there too.

Available here.

My short story An Open Letter To Any Impressionable Young School Leavers Who Are Considering Joining The Space Corps appears in this week’s issue of Nature.

You can read my story In The Beginning There Was The Machine in the latest issue of Flurb, edited and published by the mighty Rudy Rucker.

Plenty of other good stuff in there too.  And all for free!

I heard from Nic Wilkinson at Insomnia that Robert M. Heske was putting together an anthology book featuring both comics and short stories based around the 2012 myths.  He specifically wanted a short story about what would happen the day after the cataclysmic events of the 21st of December, 2012 . So I knocked up a story and he’s bought it for the book.

The Seeds Of Time will appear, along with an accompanying illustration, in 2012: Final Prayer.

Due out sometime towards the end of the year. Should be a good book.

Just heard that Nature have bought another one of my short stories for their Futures section.

When I sent it in I thought that this one was a real long shot, but I thought that when I sent the first story they published too.

Out within a few months I should think.

“Innsmouth Free Press is a fictional newspaper publishing faux news as well as original short fiction stories. We also feature some of Lovecraft’s classic tales.“

They’ve already posted the full text of Lovecraft’s The Shadow Over Innsmouth.

The first issue launches on June 1st, 2009 and my short story Beneath The Cold Black Sea will be in the Autumn issue. Due out in the, ummm, Autumn.

I knew all that tentacle porn Lovecraft research would pay off.

My short story, Spamface, appears in this week’s issue of Nature, on sale August 28th.

My story Something out of Nothing appears in Barren Worlds, a new anthology from Hadley Rille Books.

$12.92 here.

Got some great news yesterday.  Nature editor Henry Gee emailed me to say that he’s accepting my short story “Spamface” for publication in the Futures section of an upcoming issue.

Click below for info on the current issue.

You can read my short story New In Town on The Tiny Globule.  And it’s free!

SFX reviewed issue 3 of Murky Depths. Nice to see Shit New World getting a mention.

Not sure why they called it a fanzine though.

Some good news arrived in my inbox recently. Declan Meade, editor of The Stinging Fly has accepted a short story that I sent him earlier in the year.

Not sure which issue it’ll be in, not the summer one though, maybe November.
