Ian Forth

Ian lives in France and Wales. His short fiction has been published in Lit eZine, These Pages Sing, Fragmented Voices, The Mocking Owl Roost, and Literally Stories. The story 'Leaf Relief' was broadcast as a podcast on 'Yorick Radio Scintillating Stories'. It is a beautiful story to read and hear. His short stories in the collection 'Hazlitt and the Mobility Scooter' lean into the speculative yet also contain humour and pathos. They are described as ' beguiling', 'unconventional' and 'wicked'.

Ian has also written a family memoire, as well as a collection of short stories for younger readers, and an account of a cycling journey along the canals in southern France.

HIs work as a university lecturer in Linguistics allowed him to develop his fascination with languages and to travel extensively. Many of his tories are set in foreign countries.
