Busy rewriting the first chapter of Shadows and Pagodas so the story begins in Shrewsbury, England rather than Prussia. Likely reorganise the story into two seperate books and will tighten up the plot lines, pen in a  couple more characters and scenes, including Peter's clairvoyant grandmother, Dungeons & Dragons in a Paris church and introducing Camille's interdimensional vintage Cadillac...

Those talented folks at Penumbric magazine have accepted one of Jack's short stories. Rocket Ship Temple Blues is a spin off from my old novel Zen City, Iso and features some its characters but reimagined with a strong retro sci-fi theme.

 

“Dark comedy set in an artificial noir world (think Bladerunner meets 1940s Thailand). Palm Trees is an ex-monk who has had a terrible premonition and must find his friend Bob before it’s too late.”

 

Rocket Ship should be published in Penumbric's October’s edition.

 

Jack has submitted a short story to another magazine and busy working on a third. They also have speculative elements and set in a retro sci-fi Thailand.
