Chris Benjamin, Freelance Writer

My short stories have been published in newspapers, online journals, on audio broadcasts and compact discs, and in anthologies. My first novel, Drive-by Saviours, won the Percy Prize in the 2008 Atlantic Writing Competition. In 2006, I won an honourable mention in the Larry Turner creative nonfiction contest. Here are a few samples of my published creative work:
