Hidden in the Stacks
This story first appeared in the November issue of SciFanSat, a monthly free ezine. This one was actually nominated for the monthly award and was then published in the end of year nominees edition. I enjoyed writing this one and think it could be a lot of fun to do more with it. It may … Continue reading Hidden in the Stacks
Long Way Home – Avalon and Albion short
This week I did a short Avalon and Albion tail for Thurs Threads and received one of the 2 honourable mentions so I though why not let you all read it too. Read about ThursThreads and the other stories here: https://siobhanmuir.com/thursthreads-week-646-winners/ He cleared every room, switching on every light to check she wasn’t laying somewhere … Continue reading Long Way Home – Avalon and Albion short
Mistletoe and magic (an Avalon and Albion xmas tale)
“Kaekillian, what the hell is going on?” “Oh, Rowan did mention something about the department Christmas party. I didn’t think it would be on site,” Kaekillian cringed. The corridors were full of dressed up academics waving around glasses of wine and chatting loudly over the music. “Why did you leave the artefact with her anyway?” … Continue reading Mistletoe and magic (an Avalon and Albion xmas tale)
Updates (aka what do you mean it’s December?!)

Which was possibly due to the bar being packed. I searched around for Heather; she’d gone to get drinks so long ago I … Continue reading Caveat Emptor

Guard Duty – a short story
This story first appeared in SciFanSat ezine issue 7 Tap, tap, tap. Frederick sighed and stilled his restless foot. The chair scraped along the stone floor as he stood up and started to march around the room. It wasn’t much to look at – a circular stone wall enclosing the space, with only one door … Continue reading Guard Duty – a short story
What is fantasy? Part 1?
As soon as I wrote that title, I was drawn to the famous line of Queen. Is this the real life or is this just fantasy? And technically I feel like I could probably leave the blog post there, the line pretty much gets to the crux of the matter. I was planning on talking … Continue reading What is fantasy? Part 1?
