Already a busy month due to writing a fifty thousand word novel, I’ve decided to really push myself and try and get a short story submission in this month, too. There’s actually three that I’d been thinking about due at the end of November. The one that’s most developed is a young adult supernatural story, for the Rebel Books anthology. So, while ‘The Sulphur Diaries’ is almost two days ahead of schedule, I might start thinking about my as yet untitled short.

Four friends who play a lot of co-op lan games find themselves on the wrong side of an apocalypse. Can their finely honed strategies and tactics help them survive, even without extra lives and unlimited ammo?
