Fiction

I’m a research scientist by day, a writer of offbeat speculative tales and other literary abominations by night.

Occasionally I even write stories that other people actually like to read. I’ll post any new publications in my treasury of wayward fictions right here as they come through the pipeline. I also have a smattering of short stories available in the usual places. Just search for my pen name– “Ainscott”– on the reader of your choice.

As of recently I am also a member of the Codex writers group.

Short Stories

2012

“Piss Match,” written as Alistair Ainscott, in Penumbra, Vol. 1 No. 4 (Musa Publishing), January 2012. Professional market (5¢/word). [Kindle]

A high-tech urinal, a pointless workplace confrontation– what could  possibly go wrong?

You can help support a great new speculative fiction magazine and subscribe to Penumbra. Many established authors– as well as newcomers like me– appear in the pages of the magazine.
