The latest Gutter magazine looks like a corker and I'm delighted to say I've got a story in it alongside some amazing writers. More info here: http://www.guttermag.co.uk/gutter-18-announced/
Story in Neon
I have a story in the new Neon Magazine, alongside the awesome Heather Parry. You can grab a copy here. Fiver for a print copy, pay what you want for a digital one. Bargain.
Showcase
All of us 2017 New Writers Award winners will be giving it the old razzle-dazzle next Thursday evening (the 18th) as we read what we've been working on this year at the Jam House in Edinburgh. Tickets are only a couple of quid each so there's no excuse really:

Young Scot of the Year
I'm so chuffed to have been chosen by the Scottish Review as one of their Young Scots of the Year! Totally crazy to be listed alongside people who are doing way more worthwhile things than just bunging some words on a page.
Book Festival Reading
I'll be reading a story at the Edinburgh Book Festival this year: Monday the 28th of August at 3pm in the Spiegeltent.
And check out the rest of the Story Shop people too, they're brilliant.
Waxing lyrical about libraries
I wrote a short piece about the library I work in for Edinburgh City of LIterature as part of their Make It Count campaign.
