NB There were various other short stories that got published that I didn't keep a record of, never really acknowledging myself as a writer (smacks forehead). Those I recall were with organisations like Five Stop that no longer exist. There is also some poetry is anthologies somewhere on a dusty shelf. All the aforementioned will be published under my maiden name of Bowden. Good luck finding any of them. Let me know if you do.
