Never bothered updating this thing much, so I decided to remove the posts and leave the “blography” page. That’s all.
Not really a blog kind of person. Toyed with the idea of removing this page, because, honestly, I just don’t care about all this social networking stuff.
You might call this BLOGRAPHY …
I was nominated for the Pushcart Prize in 2008. I think it was 2008. Or was it 2009? Well, whatever. http://www.pushcartprize.com/
Below is a short list (by no means comprehensive) of some of the publications where you’ll find my frantic scribblings.
Shroud magazine (issue 3 & 7 non-fiction, issue 4 fiction), Something Wicked (issue 9), Underground Voices, Ballista, Cover of Darkness Anthology (“Resurrection Insurrection”) published by Sam’sdotPublishing, Sniplits (an audio publisher), Sein Und Werden, The Shine Journal, Swimming Kangaroo Books, Characters Magazine, Shalla Magazine (lit), Flash Fiction Online (april 2008 ), Midnight Horror (now defunct), Belong Anthology (forthcoming, May 2010), Darwin’s Evolutions (under a pen name)… there are numerous others that I’ve forgotten about but should show up on a google search under my other names. Most of my “early” fiction (2007- ) was published under the name Sophie Bachard; places like Sein Und Werden, Shalla, Rose & Thorn … These ”early” submissions were somewhat experimental; toe-dips to test the temperature of the water.
I also won 1st place in Shine Journal annual fiction contest in Jan 2008.
I’ve used a couple of other pen names, so far, and for publications that I’ve not mentioned here. In time …
Biography:
I was born in South London, UK, where I was raised as a feral child by stray dogs.
“Unfortunately there is no test of literary merit except survival, which is itself an index to majority opinion.” – George Orwell.
