The Champion of Quidi Vidi

Summer Storms and Strangers

Summer Storms and Strangers

My short story The Champion of Quidi Vidi is now live at The FREAK!, a home for strange fiction with teeth, heart, and a healthy respect for the uncanny. Set against the salt air and sharp edges of Newfoundland, the story blends local grit, queer longing, and dark mystery into something a little funny, a little folkloric, and more than a little dangerous. I’m delighted this strange little Newfoundland beast has found such a perfect home. https://www.thefreak.ca/stories/the-champion-of-quidi-vidi/
