The final issue of one of my favorite magazines, Short Circuit, is out today.
A bittersweet moment, but I’m happy to have two pieces in it.
The first is a very short story, The Sweet Striper.

The second is a poem, I do not begrudge the young.

I hope you enjoy them…
That’s all for now, friends.

Oi – it’s the July issue of The School Magazine, Australia’s most popular children’s mag. I wrote the cover story – about a maniacal pachyderm.
Have a great day, friends – and watch out for elephants.
