Out now: THE LAST DRAGONERS OF BOWBAZAR, my uncategorisable novella out about Ru, a 'boy from nowhere' growing up in 90s/00s Calcutta, facing the impossibility that his family may be migrants from another reality, & Alice, a neighbour from Chinatown who is pulled close to their secrets. Links below:
ICYMI, my mythic realist novella about a boy coming of age in an extended family who may refugees from another reality, in a house in Calcutta that may be a dragons' nest. It won a British Fantasy Award and a Subjective Chaos Kind of Award, if that affects one's inclination to read it:

Please help Ahmad's family survive Israel's genocide in Gaza, which has left them homeless & starving in winter under renewed bombing. His mother urgently needs treatment for retinal disease, & is losing her eyesight. Bluesky's deletions have driven him to despair:

Head ablaze, I ran indoors with my friend. I put out the sparking flames with my hands. We stood, uncertain about the future, not ready to face death yet, hands black with burned hair.
Dreamed a friend were infected, waiting in a house for the end, during a pandemic of a disease that made people burn up in daylight like vampires. We sat at dawn in a courtyard; the first rays of the sun hit my head, which lit up like a giant sparkler. I could feel the heat & light, but no pain.
