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.

You might call this BLOGRAPHY …

I’m proud to announce that I’ve been nominated for the prestigious Pushcart Prize. http://www.pushcartprize.com/

Just some of the publications where you’ll find some of my work:

Shroud magazine (issue 3 & 7 non-fiction, issue 4 fiction), Something Wicked (issue 9), Underground Voices, Ballista, Cover of Darkness Anthology (“Resurrection Insurrection”), Sniplits (an audio publisher), Sein Und Werden, The Shine Journal, Swimming Kangaroo Books, Characters Magazine, Shalla Magazine (lit), Flash Fiction Online (april 2008 ), 42Magazine (literary mag), Midnight Horror (now defunct), Bards and Sages Quarterly (under a pen name), Darwin’s Evolutions (under a pen name)… there are numerous others that will show up on a google search, no doubt. Most of my “early” fiction (2007- ) was published under the name Sophie Bachard. My early submissions were somewhat experimental; toe-dips to test the temperature of the water sort of thing. 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.
