A special treat today! I am very pleased to present a short story by talented author Emma Newman (yes, the very one who narrated the audiobook version of TimeSplash). Emma is engaged in a mammoth project this year, to write five novels set in her Split Worlds universe along with a new Split Worlds [...]

I mentioned the other day that the few books I’ve self-published have been available for free on Smashwords to celebrate Read an eBook Week. Well, the week is almost up and it has been an astonishing success. People picked up almost as many [...] March 12th, 2011 | Tags: book, booksellers, ebooks, fiction, future of publishing, novellas, online fiction, publishing, sci-fi, science fiction, self-promotion, self-publishing, short stories | Category: announcements | 4 comments Yes, it’s Read an eBook Week again. And for all you folks who would love to read some ebooks but can’t bring yourself to part with a dollar or two to buy them (you know who you are), now’s your chance to get them at reduced prices or even free at Smashwords. I don’t [...] March 6th, 2011 | Tags: Australia, book, ebooks, epub, fiction, free, future of publishing, Kindle, Last Christmas, mobi, online fiction, portfolio, sci-fi, science fiction, self-promotion, self-publishing, short stories, Sony, writing | Category: announcements | One comment This is probably my last post before Christmas, so let me wish you all a great one. I love Christmas and I love having my family here for the celebrations, so I’ll be having a good time. I’ve also lined up my Christmas reading – for all the quiet time that never quite materialises.

It's BP! G’day mates. It’s a bright and sunny winter’s morning as I write, Independence Day in the US, and just another gorgeous 5th July here in Australia. Since I’ve been neglecting my readers lately, I thought I’d throw in a simple update on my writing life just to keep things [...] July 5th, 2010 | Tags: agents, blog, blogging, book, ebooks, fiction, future of publishing, Loner's Deep, novels, online fiction, personal, sci-fi, science fiction, techniques, The Credulity Nexus, writing | Category: announcements | Leave a comment This post is only really relevant to Australian sci-fi fans. The rest of you may pass the time watching TV or cutting your toenails while they read this. I’ll give you a shout when you can come back. I just saw a tweet from @AustLiterature which reminded me that the 2010 Ditmar awards are [...] July 2nd, 2010 | Tags: All the Way, Australia, awards, Ditmars, fiction, online fiction, portfolio, publishing, sci-fi, science fiction, self-promotion, short stories, The Earth Ship, writing | Category: announcements | Leave a comment What do you do when you’re trying to build a career as a science fiction writer and you suddenly go nuts and write a children’s book? I’m sure we’ve all done it. Right in the middle of writing your latest high-energy space opera, your brain goes on the fritz and out pours a Rgency [...] March 23rd, 2010 | Tags: book, ebooks, fiction, future of publishing, Hangin, humour, Kindle, online fiction, personal, publication, publishing, self-publishing, writers, writing | Category: announcements | Leave a comment I’ve been looking at 2009 to check how I’ve been doing against my writerly ambitions. It’s pretty good, overall. I got eight shorts stories published and placed in two competitions. I also won a write-a-quote competition! I also had my two first print publications (both short stories in anthologies). Although I actually made money [...] December 31st, 2009 | Tags: agents, book, ebooks, fiction, Graham Storrs, humour, novels, online fiction, personal, portfolio, publication, review, self-promotion, short stories, Timesplash, writers, writing | Category: announcements | One comment This will be the last post on this blog before Christmas. I can’t promise you that it’s the last post of the year, but for now I’m signing out. My daughter’s arriving the day after tomorrow and there’s lots to do before then. I want to leave you with a little Christmas present though.

I very much enjoy writing and reading flash fiction and this is the second time I have had a piece appear in Alien Skin (thanks guys).

publishersResources for WritersBooks I RecommendI have put together a set of books which are, in my view, the best sci-fi ever written. If you want to know my taste in sci-fi, or if you’re interested in expanding your own collection, go and take a look. Find my favourite Science Fiction Masterpieces on my Amazon store. But wait… My Amazon store is a separate website. When you get there you will need to click the “Return to the Graham Storrs blog” link to get back here.
