'Upward Mobility' Published at Every Day Fiction

My frenetic short story Upward Mobility has been up at the Every Day Fiction site as from the 22nd.

Reaction has been mixed, much as it was amongst the members of my writers' circle and the editors from Every Day Fiction. There was even a one-star rating from someone who took exception to the profanity. Anyhow, the link is below:

All I can say about the story is that there's a pinata scene around the middle of the story, and that any other information would be a spoiler.
As the site suggests, Every Day Fiction publishes a piece of fiction daily. The story can be almost any genre and encourages lively debates and critiques amongst those commenting.

Why not take a look at the site?

'Face to Face' Published in Fast Fiction

PictureCosmetic Surgery
Face lifts. Liposuction. Cosmetic surgery. That's the topic of Face to Face, my distopian story recently published in the Australian quarterly magazine, Fast Fiction. The story hovers around the border of Fast Fiction's guideline, but appears not to have crossed them.

The basic plot of the story is a woman winning fifty thousand pounds' worth of cosmetic surgery and waking up in a field with an unfamiliar face and an unfamiliar body. The plot progresses from there, but alas, no spoilers.
