I’ve been working as a translator from Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and German for years, translating everything from technical manuals, contracts and annual reports to memoirs, self-help books, theses and subtitles. 

Novels are currently my “thing”, but I also write poetry and short fiction as the mood takes me. Styles vary, depending on how I feel at the time!

I’m pleased to announce that my 5000-word short story Echoes has been shortlisted for the 2024 Rhys Davies Short Story Award. The story will be published by Parthian Books as part of an anthology on 27 November 2024. Rhys Davies Short Story Competition 2024
