The Ampersand Syndicate

My published works.

From time to time, a poem or story gets picked up beyond this site. I keep track of them here, as a small reminder that the work keeps moving.

I’ll also use this space to share what’s next, from ebooks to the occasional limited edition print projects.


Poetry

In August of 2025, I submitted 10 haiku to the 5-7-5 Haiku Journal and its host, DJ Tyrer. I was surprised that DJ accepted all 10 of my haiku!

 


Fiction

A flash fiction piece of mine, “Shadowline”, was accepted for the SciFanSat Magazine in August 2025.

 


Podcasts

Here you’ll find links to podcasts connected to my work, both my own and those that have featured it.

BRAINSTORYUM
Anna Tizard’s podcast where words take strange turns and become story ideas. It’s based on a surrealist word game called Exquisite Corpse, and she regularly reads my work along with that of other writers. I have to admit, I love hearing her bring my words to life.

Recent episodes include (youtube links): 84, 88, 90, and 92.

 

PROMPTED!
This was my short-run podcast about creativity, constraint, and the strange little sparks that writing prompts can start. The full archive lives on Spotify.

 

BOOKED
A podcast that explores creativity with indie writers. I joined for an episode (on YouTube) shortly after releasing Spectra Noir: Shadows in the Light, my poetry and short story collection that leans toward the darker side of things.

 


eBooks

I once published books in the Amazon jungle. It was fine, until it wasn’t.

Soon, my eBooks will be available directly through my own store. Simple, affordable, and under my own control.

 


Limited Edition Print Projects

The first project here will be a limited edition illustrated short story, now in development. Details to come.
