Nightmares unleashed!
My debut collection, Vaudeville and Other Nightmares, is now available in paperback from Black Beacon Books!

New words
About a week ago I started drafting a new novel, a sort of haunted-house-from-the-outside-looking-in type story that centres on the neighbouring houses and the people within.

The Year of Writing Seriously
2014 is going to be the year of writing seriously for me. This year has been one of self-reflection. I’ve been asking myself about what I want to get out of being a part-time writer and the answer has always been that I want to write full-time. It’s time for me to up the anteContinue reading “The Year of Writing Seriously”
