Eternal gratitude to Sylvia Marie for putting out β€˜AAAH’ (Forge Press) & including two of my poems.

β€˜It’s so much more than an anthology against hate. It’s an anthology of love, resistance & beauty.’

ALL proceeds will go to protecting the safety & dignity of refugees & asylum seekers in the UK.

This book stages itself as a male power fantasy in the beginning, only to deconstruct idea and morph into a narrative where Seth must learn to use his emotions in healthier waysβ€”craft them into a strength to combat monsters both external and internal.

An image of the book 'On the Edge of Night and Day'

A remote outpost. An alien life form. A mystery.

Stella had her heart set on spending her work term as part of the second mission to the core of New Venus. Instead, she’s assigned to a remote science outpost on a forgotten moon.

To make things worse, she’s stuck with Dizzyβ€”her chaotic, endlessly curious classmate who talks too much, breaks too many rules, and seems determined to actually enjoy their exile.

But as the days pass, Stella starts to see a different side of Dizzy as their work at the outpost reveals strange, breathtaking secrets. A colossal fungal organism that might be sentient and is definitely growing. Mysterious, gravity defying particles. Fragments of research long buried. Then Dizzy stumbles across the biggest secret yetβ€”a previous student died at the outpost under suspicious circumstancesβ€”circumstances that are happening again.

Now, Stella and Dizzy must rely on each other to uncover the truth of what happened at the outpostβ€”before whatever’s growing out there comes for them next.

On the Edge of Night and Day is now out!

A trip to a isolated science outpost on a tidally locked world flooded with fabulous fungi leads to a mystery. But, at it’s core this is a book about friendship.
