You’ve recently finished your PhD in Creative Writing, exploring the representation of autism in sci-fi and fantasy; could you tell us a little more about that process and the outcome of your doctorate?

Also, whilst completing your PhD, you wrote a novel called ‘The Wing’, that you are currently in the process of submitting to literary agents and publishers; could you please tell us a little more about it?

Finally, you have recently had your flash fiction collection ‘Incorcisms’ published by Arachne Press, and Fauna, a collection of weird, short tales about animals, published by Fly on the Wall Press, who dubbed it ‘vegan noir’; again, could you please tell us a little more about those?
