VLAK Magazine
I’m very pleased to be in the new VLAK Magazine, a curated art and literature magazine from Prague, thanks a lot to one of the editorial board, Louis Armand for inviting me to contribute.
My story “The Good Citizen” is a very contemporary short story set in London. The magazine is available now and has been launched in Prague and London. I’m alongside many luminaries of the more innovative end of the contemporary literature scene so its a pleasure to be involved.

Occasionally attempts like Sylvia Smith's "Misadventures" have […]
- Art CurrentsAt the start of March I was in Oxford for the first time, ostensibly to see the Jeff Koons show at the Ashmolean, though that was really just my excuse to go down, as I was off work for a week, and needed a trip away. I have always liked Koons, as more than any other contemporary artist he seemed to embody the times in which he creates. Sure, he's a lat […]
