Flinders View, Queensland, Australia.
Hello, fellow writers and readers!
My name is Gabriel. I’m a young Australian who loves to write short stories, and I am currently working on the second draft of my first novel.
I’ve been a voracious reader since I was aged 9 (thank you, Enid Blyton).
I also love cats, chess, golf, and ancient history. My first ‘published’ story was in the Sunday Mail FactorX, a screen-free zone for kids.
One of my favourite things about writing is just letting my imagination run ... and making my fingers keep up!

Short Stories / 19 April 2024
Years. That’s how long it’s been. Years that have apparently flecked my hair with wispy white fingers and drawn the times of see-saws, slippery dips, and little lolly-smeared faces to a jarring end. Everyone I know is gone.
