On ‘Untitled (A Standoff Begins)’
I’m very pleased to be able to say that my piece Untitled (A Standoff Begins) has been published in the May 2021 edition of the singular RIC Journal.

On ‘The Dead Man’s Gun’
My piece The Dead Man’s Gun has been published in the May 2020 edition of the ever-mysterious RIC Journal. The Dead Man shifts and shakes based on mood or the position of the stars – I’m never sure where I will find him or where he will end up, especially in the era of the Read.

Pleased to say that my poem Untitled (Sundown rewrite) has been published in the November 2019 edition of RIC Journal.

Very pleased to post that my poem Crocodilian has been published in the October 2019 edition of the ever-off-centre RIC.
