To his self-deprecating astonishment he's also been nominated for the Story South’s Million Writers Award twice without sending the judges so much as a thank you note. He co-edited the satiric transgressive fiction collection D*CKED: DARK FICTION INSPIRED BY DICK CHENEY and his debut novel KOKO TAKES A HOLIDAY is out now from Titan Books.

Orwell Stretches: Jabberwocky

Still happening...this bell did not ring, this is not a crisis, leci n'est pas une pipe... ban all words that contradict and, instead, invoke words that defy logic and smack of authoritarian horsefeathers. Covering the tracks, greasing the wheels. Be on guard, people..."voted in favor of banning the phrases "Wall Street" and "shadow banking" and the words "interconnection" and "deregulation"...
