A couple of new reviews for Slights. Mark Deniz at Beyond Fiction recently re-published The Blue Stream, my second story in print and one I’m inordinately proud of. He reviews Slights here. Gnostalgia is a very interesting review and commentary site, and Barry gives Slights 5 out of 5!

Poppet, who reviews Slights at her website Poppet’s Planet, says this: “….One in particular is a metaphor including a see-saw. You cannot find balance unless you work with the person on the other [...]

The only one which really stumped me was the one about expanding on any Australian cultural things other readers might not understand. It’s hard to know this from [...]

One of the inspirations for “Slights” was the Bhagavad Gita. I read that book when I was young. Well, I didn’t read it; I looked at the pictures. Especially the pictures of hell. An alcoholic in a bar having molten lead poured down tjhis throat. An adulterous woman, her diaphanous gown in rags about her, [...]
