Gregg Cunningham 50, born Scotland currently serving out his time in the largest penal colony on earth.

So far I have had 20 short stories published over the last 5 years, each tale a greater challenge than the one before.Competition out there is tough so my rejection list seems to be getting even longer! All the more time to practice, and produce something special.

Mostly I try humour/horror/ science fiction- tongue firmly in cheek dead pan humour. My first story was picked up by 559 publishing and printed in 13 Bites volume III - titled "Stacey" which was about a seance that goes horribly wrong and a horny teen who has to deal with the bloody aftermath. A few good giggles in that one.

I've scattered a few breadcrumbs in many anthology books, some tales carrying on from other stories hidden away.

One such story is "War Pig" picked up by Zombie Pirate Publishing in their anthology 'World War Four'. My tale follows the life of an old time travelling pilot as he battles enemies above the mining craters of our Moon, before finding himself lost in time, a reluctant prisoner of war caught while trying to steal the very secret enemy technology that began his adventures.

Some technology just ain't worth the blood spilled to capture.

Or is it?

Another tale follows Sydney, a young girl lost in space and trying to survive against the stacking odds against her as her Oxygen supply leaks away.

'The Lucky One' can be found inside Deep Space Volume 1 Black Hare Press.

-UPDATE- Her latest Adventure out August 2021 finds Sydney teaming up with a very familiar Mechanical Medical mech as they battle a common foe.

look out for 'Jonah' in Black Ink Fiction's Space Opera Anthology.

Scruddin' Awesome that one!

My First Novellete release in 2020- WARDENCLYFFE is a tongue in cheek daring doo adventure following Captain Swarley Paxmore as he battles monstrosities over the Atlantic ocean onboard the infamous Titanic.

Swarley's second adventure Loves great adventurer is Published soon with Breaking Rules Europe releasing their Adventure Awaits Anthology late 2021.

I hope you read a few of my short tales on your own travels, and enjoy the yarns.

Thanks for stopping by.
