Apologies for the slow blogging week – I’ve been moving house and it has caused havoc with my writing schedule.<\/p>\n

I’m pleased to announce that Antipodean SF<\/a> has published one of my short stories –\u00a0In the Service of the Public<\/em><\/a>\u00a0in issue 169 (July 2012). This story was inspired by one of the courses I went on last year to learn how to be a better public servant (unfortunately my course didn’t have quite as exciting a finish).<\/p>\n

If you’re reading this post in the future:<\/p>\n

  1. Where is my jetpack?<\/li>\n
  2. The stories on Antipodean SF are archived after 1 month – I keep an up to date list of links on the bibliography<\/a> page.<\/li>\n
  3. No seriously. Give me my jetpack.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Antipodean SF is always looking for new stories and Nuke is great to work with. If you are a budding writer and want to try your hand at flash fiction (about 500 words – it’s harder than it sounds) then I’d really encourage you to go to the Antipodean SF website and check out their submission guidelines.<\/p>\n
