Yerevan, March 2017, in front of Mother Armenia and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

I'm a London-based writer of fiction, and have published short stories, many of them finding a home in Ambit magazine. I also write novels, and my first one was published in April 2011 by Unthank Books. It's called Laikonik Express, and follows two American slackers as they hare around Poland in search of a woman one of them has met. The Laikonik express is the name of the train taking them on their way, which runs from Krakow in the south, to Gdynia in the north, on the Baltic Sea.

I'll be posting some of my writing here, some of it published, some of it unpublishable, maybe, and some of it just works-in-progress, and will welcome comments, criticism, creative derision and crisps.
