Kate Moss vs The Millipede
This is a startlingly true story about a clash between Kate Moss and a millipede. I know it's true because I wrote it.This will be published in my first chapbook Kate Moss & Other Heroines, Black Scat Books November, 2012

The Lizard's Don Giovanni
I was having a siesta in a pension in Sevilla when a gecko came in through the window. Just as I was drifting into sleep I heard the duet of Don Giovanni and Zerlina "La ci darem la mano". I thought, My God, that gecko can't half sing, and I opened my eyes and saw the gecko looking at me, probably thinking, My God, that woman can sing two parts at the same time. Apart from my war adventures it's the only true story I've written. Although I have to admit I elaborated it a bit.

For those who don’t know Don Giovanni here is the duet. There are more professional
performances online but I think this is charming.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blFyePzSVjA

Way to Go
This is a little bit adult. I suppose you could call it necrophiliac porn.

Mother knows Best
Mary stood in the street. Just another face in the crowd. It was hot and dusty, her throat was dry. Then the mob surged forward.
‘Jesus Jesus,’ they shouted.
When Mary saw her son, whipped and bleeding, her heart fell.
‘Oh Jesus,’ she said, ‘don't tell me you're into sado-masochism.’
‘No mother, it was the Romans.’
‘Oh you poor thing. What did they do?’
The story is continued in Blue Crow Magazine - Issue 3 - April 2011, EASTER
