She edited two small press collections of short fiction, <em>Shadows on a Broken Wall</em> and <em>Mother Milk, Father Flywheel</em>, organised a weekend workshop on writing for comics, and had book reviews published in the BSFA review magazine, <em>Vector</em>.</p><p>Returning to full-time education in 1995, Helen graduated in Geology and Planetary science in 2000, teaching Geology and Creative Writing evening classes, and editing further collections of short fiction by her Creative Writing students.
