Latest news: Gimbal, a new iPhone App, has launched - and it features False Light, one of my short stories! Gimbal offers a new way of reading the city. Choose a city - anywhere in the world - and be transported to it by its fiction. Traverse its precincts. Map your way through its quarters or arrondissements. The Gimbal navigates as it narrates. With it you can travel by train, tram, metro, bus or indeed on foot, experiencing each new landscape through the eyes of a fictional character. And it's FREE!
For day to day chat, links to things I find interesting, informative or plain bizarre – as well as for general banter, follow me on Twitter, or try my Facebook page.
