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. The one where I waffle on about what I’ve achieved and what I haven’t. I don’t set myself any hard writing or art goals (unlessContinue reading “The Post to End All Posts?”

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.

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!”

As well as Halloween-themed blog posts by members, readers will be treated to interviews, book excerpts and prizes. There will be something new every day, so if you’ve got a fetish for all things Halloween, then the HWA blogsite isContinue reading “Helping out the HWA for Halloween”

A lot of writers and artists profess to writing while drinking a lot of coffee and sometimes alcohol. Many other creators over the decades have created music and art while under the influence of mind altering drugs.A recent survey found that editors/writers are the 4th heaviest consumers of coffee. Is this solely because they need to beContinue reading “Writing under the influence?”
