About me
I'm Sarah Jackson, a writer living on the edge of Epping Forest in London, UK and occasionally zooming through it on my tricycle.
Writing
My speculative short stories, flash fiction, and poems have been published in magazines and anthologies including Strange Horizons, Translunar Travelers Lounge, Electric Spec, Wyldblood Magazine, and Tales From Between.
The Haunted Tea Set & Other Stories, a collection of my most uncanny fiction, is now available to buy from most of the usual places.
Inner Worlds
After previous experience on the editorial team of Fantastic Other magazine, I've set up Inner Worlds, a quarterly speculative fiction zine about our inner lives.
For me, fantasy, horror, and science fiction offer some of the very best tools to find words for the wordless, express the inexpressible, and share our deepest stories.
Newsletter
Every month I send a free email newsletter with links to interesting, entertaining, or useful things that I've been reading, watching, and listening to. (Here's an example!)
Subscribers also get a free ebook (EPUB and mobile-friendly PDF). Ten Strange Tales is a selection of my favourite ghost stories from the public domain, including stories by Virginia Woolf, Edith Wharton, Charles Dickens, May Sinclair, and more.
Groups and networks
Finding writing community has been massively important for me, and it's the first thing I would recommend to any new writer. Currently or previously I've been a member of the following groups and networks:
- Spectrum, the London Network for SFF Writers
- Cat Rambo's SFF writing community
- HOWL Society
- Codex Writers
- British Fantasy Society
- SFWA
- HWA
- NAWE
- Lapidus International
