Apologies for not posting anything up here for nearly a month – been swamped with the day job + business travel – however I am working on a new dark fantasy genre story. More to follow...

Off to Buxton and new dark fiction published
by
Charles Christian
on Sat 11 Jul 2009 11:17 AM BST
Another quick catch-up – new writings and pictures really are on there way – to say...
* I'm now off to Buxton to do 3 shows at the Fringe Festival this Sunday, Monday and Tuesday * And, I've just had a micro-fiction ultra short story published in the online horror webzine Flashes in the Dark. Its called Mickey had already gone – and its my usual cheery fare in which nobody gets out of the story alive. You can find it here: http://flashesinthedark.com/ Tuesday, July 7
Charles Christian heading to Australia

Charles Christian – that's me – is
visiting Australia at the end of this month to do a couple of seminars
with software vendors with the day-job. I fly into Sydney on the morning of Monday 27 July – will be in
Melbourne for part of 29th/30th – and depart mid-day Saturday 1st
August. In between the jetlag, seminars and (hopefully) partying, I'm
available for meetings, readings, performances and whatever – I'm particularly good at whatever.

I'm currently in Spain – but culture is never far away – good to see Lorca can finally come out of the shadows...

Christian says... Yes, I know it was
only last month I said 'sod Twitter, it is completely pointless' but
now I'm back – at the request of
some of my digital nomad friends who say that actually it is a useful
way to
keep in touch if you live a peripatetic 24/7 lifestyle – although
admittedly this is using the technology as more of a group SMS texting
facility. I can be found at @ChristianUncut – and this time I'm going to try to concentrate on quality rather than quantity.

Blowing own trumpet time

 Just had a longish, dark fantasy (& semi-autobiographical – well at least half of it is true) short story Waiting for My Mocha to Cool published in issue #3 of Paraphilia Magazine. It starts on p.24 – however as Paraphilia is a large downloadable PDF publication, I'll just leave a link www.paraphiliamagazine.com Monday, June 22

If you are in Brighton (England) on Tuesday evening, try to catch IS&T editor Charles Christian's new one man show Tales from the Digital Slow Lane, which is part of this year's Brighton Fringe Festival. Not a poem in sight, just storytelling...

Tales from the Spoken Word Frontline
by
Charles Christian
on Sun 29 Mar 2009 07:26 PM BST
Just come back from a live lit/spoken word event and I'm wondering these two things...
* Why do so many male poets still write like Charles Bukowski ? and * Why do so many male poets still read or perform their work like Adrian Mitchell in 1968? Can we please move on? Saturday, March 28
Now appearing on Twitter

 Starting this coming Monday, I'm going to 'tweeting' on the Twitter 'micro-blogging' service. If you know what it is, then 'good' as I don't need to explain it you. If you don't know what it is... bit of a problem but try it anyway as it costs nothing. I'll be mainly posting about the journalism day job but I'll also be covering the writing world generally, plus events (literature/spoken word & otherwise), plus – hopefully – some human interest stuff. You can 'follow' me – Charles Christian – at http://twitter.com/FourthEstate |
