Awards and Mentions

2020 July - Australasian Horror Writers Association Mentorship awarded with horror writer Kaaron Warren
2020 July/August - Special mention in Rue Morgue magazine for my story 'Confinement' in Infected 2*

2020 March - AWC Furious Fiction  Longlist 'Fragments' 
2018 - Somers Paper Nautilus short story competition Highly Commended 'What's left behind' 

*Special mention in Rue Morgue review, 2020,  by Deidre Crimmins:
  'The stronger tales in Infected 2, such as 'Confinement' by Louise Zedda-Sampson and 'Welfare Check' by Patrick J. Gallagher, use the short  stature of the                               medium to their advantage. These bits of the anthology are far greater than their low word count suggests and feel like gems hidden within the bulk of the                             otherwise serviceable stories'
