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 [...] November 30th, 2011 | Tags: Emma Newman, fiction, future of publishing, online fiction, short stories, writers | Category: announcements | 13 comments Interviews are clearly like buses: you wait ages for one and then two turn up at the same time. That’s what happened today. An Interview with Alaskan Bookie You will remember the Alaskan Bookie site recently gave my time travel thriller, TimeSplash, a five-star review. Well, afterwards, Dorothy, who runs the site, asked me [...] October 10th, 2011 | Tags: agents, Australia, book, fiction, Graham Storrs, humour, interview, novels, personal, publishers, publishing, sci-fi, science fiction, short stories, techniques, The Credulity Nexus, Timesplash, writers, writing | Category: announcements | Leave a comment I’ve been looking forward to this launch, partly because the book contains some of my favourite Australian SFF writers, partly because the whole point of the book is to raise awareness of suicide, and partly because it contains the first story of mine ever to be published that features one of my favourite creations, [...] October 7th, 2011 | Tags: Australia, book, fiction, Hope, human nature, Kayelle Press, publication, sci-fi, science fiction, short stories, suicide, writers | Category: announcements | Leave a comment I’m 24,000 words into my new novel and I can’t help thinking about the process I’m going through as I hammer this story out, word by word. Novels take a long time to write. Well, they take me a long time. Some people bang out several in a year. I’m happy if I can [...] July 24th, 2011 | Tags: Cargo Cult, Emissaries, fiction, human nature, ideas, Mindrider, novels, Omega Point, personal, sci-fi, science, science fiction, short stories, techniques, The Credulity Nexus, Timesplash, writers, writing | Category: announcements | 14 comments I used to be jealous of William Wordsworth, not just because the guy could write poetry and I suck at it, but because I read once of him conceiving the opening of The Prelude, word-for-word, and later writing it down. It struck me at the time that it was similar to things I’d heard [...] July 14th, 2011 | Tags: eMergent, Mozart, science fiction sci-fi, scifi, short stories, Tiny Dancer, Wordsworth, writing | Category: anecdotes | 4 comments Tales of Post-Apocalyptic Love Remember me mentioning some upcoming anthologies with stories of mine in them? Well, one is out today. So shoot over to Amazon and grab your copy. All proceeds to to help Queensland flood victims.

For the many people who weren’t around on May 4th 2008 when I posted my first “hello world” from my brand new writing blog – that is, all of you – May 4th 2008 is the date from which I reckon my writing career began. So as [...] May 4th, 2011 | Tags: agents, Australia, blog, book, ebooks, fiction, Graham Storrs, Mindrider, novels, personal, portfolio, publishers, publishing, review, sci-fi, science fiction, self-promotion, short stories, The Credulity Nexus, Timesplash | Category: announcements | 6 comments At least, if my own experience is anything to go by! 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 In preparation for their forthcoming sci-fi anthology, In Situ, Dagan Books has begun posting interviews with the contributing authors. And today, it’s my turn. The idea behind In Situ is a good one. It is an anthology of science fiction tales about alien excavations, weird archaeology, and the unearthing of mysteries.
