About
Writer of fiction, drama and science communications.
Fiction writing
Mainly on my Substack, Stubsack Fiction. See what I did there?
It includes a bunch of 100-word micro fictions, some memoir things, and there will be short stories.
In November, I’ll launch another Substack publication, the Fuppery Newsletter, a serialised cozy murder mystery based loosely on my childhood, which makes it dark, twisted and funny, although my childhood narrowly avoided including murders. You can pre-register for this on Substack.
I also post on Bluesky as @stubsackfiction.substack.com.
Technically, I’m also on Mastodon, though hilariously I have no (like, zero, 0, nil, zilch, none) followers.
Science communication
More traditional work involves science communications. The general gist is to help scientists communicate with non scientists better.
