FICTION

“Dust,” Winner of the Two Sisters Writing & Publishing Short Story contest, July 2019. The story was also chosen to be included in the upcoming print anthology releasing in 2020.

“The Ache of Water,” in Neon Druid, short story anthology of Celtic urban fantasy writing (Mt. Misery Press, December 2018)

Pyle of Books review highlighted “The Ache of Water,” as one of the top five stories in the anthology: “While almost reading more like a character study rather than a full fledged story, this one stuck with me. There’s a lot that happens, even though only one character is essentially present and doing anything, but by the end I was moved.”

“Worth It“, 3rd place winner in the flash fiction competition from Nitrogen House (2019)
