Publication news - July 2026

Wow - more than half of 2026 has gone by! I seem to exclaim at the passage of time a lot, even though I’ve been on this earth for a goodly while and should have a rough idea of how time works.

I’m pleased to share news that my stories are being published in Witchcraft - Heroines Anthology Vol. 6 (August 2026), New - an anthology by WestWords (coming later in 2026), and ZineWest 2026, to be launched September 2026. Also, you can listen to my story ‘A Split in the Cane’ on the Bravewords Live podcast!

My story ‘By the hand of Ali Silver’ will appear in Witchcraft - Heroines Anthology Vol. 6. First published in Verandah Vol. 39, this is one of my favourite stories inspired by real-life potter Ali Silver - reimagined as a Greek muse living on earth. But why did she leave her ancestral home for a shack in the misty Blue Mountains? You can read more and pre-order Heroines Vol. 6, which will be released on 7 August 2026.
