Fiction story published!

Exciting this week as a short story of mine was published on Metromoms.net.
It is always thrilling when someone else reads your work and says that is good enough to pay for and share with others.
So I am now a published fiction writer in the United States of America.
Hopefully this might lead to the publishing of my more of my fictional efforts in the future!

With huge thanks to Helen Lowe who told me about duotrope.com as well as being frank, honest and encouraging.

  • 2009 Chancing upon 100 or more dolphins just off the Kaikoura Coast swimming around, jumping out of the water, doing somersaults and generally having fun.
