Writing About Writing About Writing: Advanced Reading
I know, I know – I owe a January summary – that’ll come next week. However I am dropping in to shout out about an Advanced Reading Copy I’ve just been sent from Luna Press who have very kindly sent me a copy of “Specalutive Fiction for Newbies” by Tiffani Angus & Val Nolan.

Guest Post by Dan Coxon – The Sickness and the Cure: Mental Health in Horror
Horror has always been a genre that rests heavily on its tropes, from the suspicious stranger to the abandoned cabin in the woods. Unfortunately, it has also at times relied on a toxic trope that can damage more than it entertains: that of the mentally ill psychopath. I’m currently crowdfunding the anthology Out of theContinue reading “Guest Post by Dan Coxon – The Sickness and the Cure: Mental Health in Horror”
Out of the Darkness Kickstarter launches
I’m very excited to see that my friends over at Unsung have launched a new Kickstarter: Out of the Darkness and it looks fabulous.

Anthology call out
Happy to announce that I’ll be editing another anthology for Grimbold books. This is one of a set of three: Unexpected Heroines: Why is it always the teenage girl who is the heroine? These are the stories of female protagonists who are never cast in the feature films. The awkward, the old, the forgotten, theContinue reading “Anthology call out”

Radio Silence
I’m diving deeper into edits and full days in the word mines for both Seven Deadly Swords and Certainty of Dust so there will probably be radio silence here for a while. I have seen a mock up of the cover for SDS and that’s very exciting! It’s likely that the next thing of mineContinue reading “Radio Silence”
