I've got a new prose piece in Queen Mob's Teahouse, called 'The Baby'. It's a mixture of written and found text, 9 sections, each exactly 111 words.
 The Pines - short story in US journal Ploughshares.
 Volumes six and 7 of Marjorie are now available in print form. Marjorie is a fauxbot tweeting daily. Volume 6 is tweets 501 - 600 and volume 7 tweets 601 - 700. Marjorie is not long for this world: she will cease operations at 800 tweets, which will happen very soon. All 8 volumes will then be available in commemoration.
 New book of prose, short and shorter, out now on if p then q.
 A new story in The Manchester Review, accompanied by this beautiful artwork. I seem to mention rhubarb a lot (see here, here and here), but as Freud nearly said, sometimes a stick of rhubarb is just a stick of rhubarb. Custard, however, is another matter entirely.
 I've had two new pieces published online recently: Cockatiels at Disclaimer Mag and Rabbit at The Wild Hunt. Both of these pieces result from an approach to writing I'm using more and more, utilising found material as I have done before, but less schematically, intereweaving it with written material to create something that is both and neither. I don't know where I'll go with it next, but it feels like a way forward. Maybe I'll write about something other than animals.
 Count the Ways - a commissioned piece for the European Poetry Review, about loving, plus Guru, a short prose piece about charismatic leadership and vegetable samosas at Spelk.
 Very pleased to have four prose pieces in the new Confingo Magazine.
 Marjorie, the mansplaining faux bot, returns with a fourth volume of tweets, here.
