Ahoy me hearties! If ye be seekin’ a treasury of treasured stories look nae further. The mighty collection “What Comes to Light” tis now available in ye olde PDF form, and for a few doubloons ye can feast your eyes on yer very own paperback copy!

I’d be mighty obliged if you were to take a gander at my interview with the brilliantly weird and weirdly brilliant Weird Lit Magazine. As well as writerly matters, I talk about astral projection, my penchant for nocturnal dirges, and my thoughts on artichokes.

Of all the stories I’ve written, the most popular have not been about love, death, or the cybernetic sexbots of Rigel 6. No, without a shadow of a doubt the theme that has most captured the imagination has been.. traffic congestion and road management. www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/fife-ma...

It’s been a while but my quest to eat a different variety of pie at every Abbey in UK continues!! Plus I’ve got a new collaborator joining me on my pi(e)lgrimage. But for now it’s over to you - can you GUESS THE ABBEY & PIE??? To guess more Abbeys and Pies go to allanmiller.weebly.com/abbeys.html

Supa stoked to have my story “A Plate of Crocodile Testicles” feature in the Featured Creators section of Full House Literary. Have a gander or listen to me read for the added bonus of my impression of a 5 year old boy! Cheers @fullhouselitmag.bsky.social www.fullhouseliterary.com/prose-script...

This week for #WelkinWindbackWednesday, "Abstract Exploration of Fragmented Relationships ..." by @mrallanmiller.bsky.social

Get stuck in to some good stuff!

Here's my story from the Flash Flood. I was going to call it “Love in the Time of Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems” but I just had this nagging feeling that it might not sound like a barrel of laughs.

Floody delighted that my story "Martha's New Boyfriend" will be bobbing along in tomorrow's flash flood at 15.45 (BST) @natflashfictionday.bsky.social

Delighted, to be highlighted.

The trash peeps have spoken!!

Come with me and you′ll be In a world of pure imagIAINation Take a look and you'll see Into your imaginatIAIN

Looking forward to getting thoroughly trashed!

Here's a story and a Q&A with the pawsome Trash Cat Lit

Time to unleash my army of followers!

Now, I know what you’re thinking, you’re thinking, “Oh no, not another exploration of fragmented relationships in a work that embodies themes such as obsession, loss, alienation, the breakdown of formal ideas and the manipulation of control through sexuality”.

Thanks Matt. Have you considered offering a selection of quality meats as a prize? (or veggie box)

Something well wicked this way comes.

I can’t tell you how delighted I am to have a story on the shortlist, but I can tell you that I can’t tell you how delighted I am to have a story on the shortlist!

Okay, I’ve finally made it here. Feeling the pressure of the first difficult tweet. Oh, hang on, it’s probably not called tweeting is it? Ah, blown it!
