I write short stories. Some of them are alright. Some of them I send away to places and some of those places come back and say, that story you sent us was alright and we’re going to publish it. Some of those places post the stories on the internet where anyone can drop in and have a read for free. Some of those stories are listed below:
Everything Binary — Published in Neon Literary Magazine
Happy Place — Published in Menda City Review
Phillies Diner — Published in Flashquake
Palo Alto — Broadcast in Bound Off (download as .mp3)
The Spirit of Shackleton — Published in Menda City Review
Between The Lines — Published in Fiction At Work
Marshmallows — Published in Fiction At Work
If you have a read (or listen) to any of these stories and you like them, let the site know. Then let me know. Then let your friends know. If you don’t like them, keep that to yourself.

Hi Gav
Long time, no correspondence – well done on the book, hope things are going well!
Here’s an oddity; in my mind, for some reason I had you mixed up with the SF/F author Gary Gibson (it’s the ‘G’ and the Glasgow thing – sorry about that).
Pop quiz – going back to long ago for a moment, I don’t suppose you happen to remember a couple of interrelated short stories I posted on Writers Dock in, ooh, late 05/early 06 called ‘Schnorbitz(Caniguerre) and the Box Monkeys’ and ‘The Final Drop of Truth (parts 1-4)’ – they were not bad, won a couple of POTW awards, iirc – do you? Reason being, I read a novel called ‘Stealing Light’ this last weekend and it seemed rather familiar, so I’m gauging some opinion to figure out if I’m going nuts or if I have been, ahem, ‘paraphrased’. Alas, with writers dock no longer having a complete visible archive, definitive proof of any misdemeanours is hard to come by – oh, happy days!

Hayfax! Apologies for this tardy response but I never check the comments. Hope you’re well. I do remember those stories. Or at least I remember the titles and them being good. You should drop in to chapterseventynine.com (or .co.uk — I can’t remember) and say hello!!
