When I started writing back in the early '90s it was mostly short stories but as time passed my brain switched to longer forms and the shorts went by the board.

Lately that has all changed and the short story circuit has been re-opened. Over the past 18 months I've started to write more shorts, and have been getting some professional level sucess with publication in Wrongworld in the US, The Weekly News in the UK, ESLI in Russia and the Gaslight Grotesque anthology in Canada. I've also got another few coming next year in the Weekly News in the UK and in Cthulhu 2012, a pro anthology from Mythos Books.

This has spurred me on to write more and get a wider audience. I've got numerous short story chapbooks coming in the next few months from the Penny Dreadful Company that will be on the shelves of stores across the SE of England, and I've got submissions out to several pro anthologies.

All of this has rekindled something I thought was burnt out.

I've got my mojo working again.
