Konnichiwa to my first translated work

Whaaat? I know, right?

Late last year I was approached by a representative from a Japanese literary zine called LETTERS UNBOUND, enquiring about my short story published in The Law of Consequences fantasy anthology.

Their next issue is scheduled for release this May with a “FOOD” theme, and guess what… they’ll be including The Sand Witch’s Sandwich translated into Japanese!

I am so chuffed this story will be reaching readers I never imagined it could. And I’m sure Ellie would be pleased too!

The cover design was shared with me last week, and I’m delighted to be able to share it with you too. Would you look at that: it’s a sandwich!

The Sand Witch’s Sandwich tells the tale of a curious young girl, an eccentric old witch, and a capricious coastline. Pack your lunch and join Ellie as she clambers around the rocks to explore beyond the lighthouse. Be careful though, you never know what you might find…

If you’re keen to read it in English, grab a copy of The Law of Consequences and you’ll be treated to 19 other fantastical tales too!
