about me

Year Zero Writers is a collective of some of the best contemporary fiction authors writing today.

Our sampler, Brief Objects of Beauty and Despair, is free. Please get in touch through our website and we'll send you the pdf.

Many of us will be familiar to you. Some of us will not. Just to be clear, Dan (me) is using this account. Whilst I hope when it comes to matters literary we speak with unanimity, I would never presume to take words from my colleagues' mouths - many of them are shy and retiring and need all the words they can get.
SHELVING POLICY - it would be wrong to shelve people's books on a swap basis, and that's not why we're here. We are eternally grateful for anything that brings us to people's attention in acourteous, civilised way. If I have not already backed your book as me I will be delighted to look at it and shelve it if I like it, but I'm afraid I don't do the sock-puppet backing thing. I hope you undestand.

Year Zero Writers

The best contemporary fiction you'll find. Straight from the authors' keyboards.


Thirteen pieces by twelve ridiculously talented witers. And me.

Each story is Copyright 2009 to the named author. Each author asserts their moral right to be named as the author of their work.

A taster of what's to come, as we build up to our first books, published on September 1st.
Benny Platonov by Oli Johns
A refugee from the former East Germany believes he can save the homeless of Hong Kong. If only he didn’t have block.


Glimpses of a Floating World by Larry Harrison
Police corruption, heroin addiction, and an elegy to the lost underbelly of Sixties London


Songs form the Other Side of the Wall by Dan Holloway
A teenage girl growing up in Post-Communist Hungary faces a heartbreaking choice between past and future.
