I’m unbelievably delighted to report that my story Husks is due to appear in an anthology of weird/Gothic bird stories, to be released next year. Edited by a writing hero of mine, Nicholas Royle, the book will be published by Two Ravens Press. I can’t begin to describe how chuffed I am with this acceptance; Nicholas Royle is one of my favourite authors, and possibly the main reason why I was drawn to dark fiction in the first place. Since I first read a story of his in Fear magazine back in the late 80s, I’ve loved almost everything he’s done, so it is a huge honour to be appearing in one of his books.
More information as I get it.
Good news ideed for every horror fan!
Stephen,
Nicholas is also one of my favourite writers. I’ve never been disappointed in anything he’s written.
Thanks, guys, for looking and commenting.
Mario, your support is much appreciated.
Mike, looking forward to being in the book with you.
Stephen, that delightful picture at the top of the page; where is it from?
Rob, like all the artwork on my site, it’s by Les Edwards, and is used with his kind permission. I adore his work – you can see some of his stuff at http://www.lesedwards.com
The art in the header is called The Uglimen, and was done in his ‘Edward Miller’ style. It originally appeared on a Mark Morris novella cover for PS Publishing, and also on the cover of Weird Tales.
The man is superb; a constant source of inspiration.
