Live at Unlikely Stories Mark V

New Dystopian Fiction – Poetry’s Price

Here it is, the first story of 2025: New Dystopian Fiction – Poetry’s Price. My latest short story has just been published in Unlikely Stories Mark V. Poetry’s Price tells the tale of a near-dystopian city that was once Portland, Oregon, a new caste system, and a world where possession of pens or blank paper is a capital offense.

Welcome to the New Year! Grab yourself a dose of dystopian fiction!
