I’ll admit now that I’m not very good at public speaking and I hate hearing my own recorded voice.

Over the weekend I reconfigured my Q&A group discussion page over at Goodreads. It’s something that I’ve been meaning to do but just haven’t got around to it until now. You can join the group by following this link – http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/89294-q-a-with-horror-author-greg-chapman You can read topics about my latest publication news, see my list of publishedContinue reading “Goodreads Discussion Page Launched!”

I’ve been sitting on this announcement for weeks, but now that it’s my birthday I’m releasing it into the wild! Bad Moon Books, one of the United States’ leading small press publishers will publish my fourth novella The Last Night of October for Halloween!

This might just be my very last post. Well that all depends on whether the Mayans were right – right? No, this is simply my obligatory end of year post.

Over the course of about 14 months from October 2010 to November 2011 I illustrated roughly 200 pages for the graphic novel Witch Hunts: A Graphic History of the Burning Times, authored by Bram Stoker Award Winners Rocky Wood and Lisa Morton. The graphic novel was published by McFarland and so far has received muchContinue reading “Witch Hunts – The Missing Pages!”

My comrade Lisa Morton recently tagged me with these interview questions as part of The Next Big Thing initiative – a concept to allow authors to help other authors, so here goes:1) What is the working title of your next book?The Last Night of October – obviously it’s about Halloween and it’s novella length.2) Where didContinue reading “The Next Big Thing”

It’s getting closer to Halloween and over at the Horror Writers Association’s blog, I’ve left a post on how I feel about Halloween as an Australian. Better still if you read my post and leave a comment you go into the draw to win a copy of my latest e-novella “Vaudeville”, published by Dark PrintsContinue reading “Want a chance to WIN a copy of Vaudeville?”

Australian small publisher Dark Prints Press released the author line-up for its upcoming anthology “A Killer Among Demons” and although I knew I was going to have a story within its pages, I never knew I was going to be rubbing shoulders with the likes of Stephen M. Irwin, Angela Slatter or William Meikle – toContinue reading “A (Humble) Horror Writer Among Legends!”

Right now I’m inking pages for the next chapter of the vampire comic Allure of the Ancients: The Key to His Kingdom (written by Mark Farrugia), which will be appearing in issue 8 of Midnight Echo Magazine. Yesterday the folks at Midnight Echo released the Table of Contents for issue 8 and it really did putContinue reading “Midnight Echo #8 is coming!”
