Haunted Holidays

Hallowe'en and Christmas are both coming up, and both feature in the new anthology from Thirteen O'clock Press, Haunted Holidays, which includes my story, Night of the Dead. The anthology is out now in paperback and can be ordered from Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Barnes and Noble and Lulu.com. (You can also request it instore as an order from Barnes and Noble.)

Also available is a new anthology of Antarctic Lovecraftian horror tales, City in the Ice, which includes my Yellow Mythos story, Aurora Australis. The anthology is available to order from Alban Lake store (print and ebook), Amazon.com (kindle), Amazon.co.uk (kindle) and Smashwords (various ebook formats).

Two chilling books for winter.

Ants and Wasps and...

...won't be spoiling things for me as they've helped me achieve a win in the 2018 Erewash Summer Garden competition! You can read my story here (scroll down).

You can also read my poem Waltzheimers on the Write City Magazine.

The Change...

...is available now for your to read on Strange Fictions.

The Change is upon me. It is a painful necessity. I am incapable of going on as I am. The ability to Change was engineered into us, the Explorers, so that we could cope with the rigors and dangers of our infiltration and reconnaissance missions. We are the future, yet we are cut off from our people by what has been done for us. We are separated from our own kind and from those amongst whom we walk, forever alone.

For those of you on Facebook, you might be interested in visiting my author page, which is an even more frequent source of updates on my published work than here.

Cowboys and Aliens!

Okay, I'm misleading you with this post title as the cowboys and aliens aren't in the same piece... but you can read both online now!

You can read my Western revenge tale, A Flower for Estrith, on Near to the Knuckle, while I also have a scifaiku on Scifaikuest Online.

I just want To Be One With You...

Are you infested with parasites? Do you crave the crawling sensation of invasive inhabitants beneath your skin? Or, do you just enjoy reading good horror fiction?

If you answered "Yes" to any of those, then you'll want to become infected by the new anthology from St Rooster Books - To Be One With You: An Anthology of Parasitic Horror, which contains my story Seeing Things, along with stories by Paul Kane, Marie O'Regan, Jeffery X Martin, David W Barbee, Ross Peterson, Peter Oliver Wonder, and Adam Millard.

Available to order now in paperback and on the Kindle.

A fairy tale featuring a bright-red earring...

Are you looking for new riffs on your favourite fairy tales? Then you'll want to check out the latest issue of Enchanted Conversation, which contains my story Dotadoko.

I have to highly-recommend Rumpelstiltskin, Las Vegas Style, too - a brilliant twist on the tale!
