I’m sure plenty of you are aware of James Melzer. He’s the evil genius behind the Unleashed podcast, and the author of ESCAPE – the first book in a new trilogy of zombie novels coming later this year from Permuted Press and Pocket Books. James got in touch with me a while back and invited [...]
Well that was an excellent weekend, if a little hectic. I wanted to thank everyone who made both the SFX Weekender and yesterday’s signing at Waterstone’s Leicester Highcross such successful events. The Weekender was much improved from last year’s inaugural event, and congratulations to the SFX team for putting it together. The highlight for me [...]
Many of you will already know Wayne. And you’ll know that I know Wayne too. He’s a good friend of mine and I’ve written before about his books FLU and DROP DEAD GORGEOUS. With DDG currently getting a long-overdue re-release through Snowbooks, Wayne’s in the middle of a blog-swap tour and today it’s his turn [...]

I know I’ve already mentioned this a couple of times, but I’m really pleased for Eric and I’m thrilled that The War of the Worlds plus Blood, Guts and Zombies – his first mass market release – is now available.
I’ve had a blast over the last couple of weeks getting out and about. I usually spend too much time sat in front of this computer, so it’s been great actually getting out and meeting people again! With three more AUTUMN novels and the final book in the HATER series out in 2011, I’m planning [...]
As a writer, I’m regularly approached by people who want to tell me about the incredible new book they’ve just written. I try to be accommodating and look at as many manuscripts as I can, and I’m always happy to share my experiences of publishing with anyone who asks. You’ll probably appreciate though, it takes time [...]
We hear so much these days about magazines closing down, so it’s fantastic when publishers are able to buck the trend and announce new titles. Readers in the UK can now get their hands on issue 1 of SCREAM magazine – a glossy, bi-monthly mag filled with the latest horror news and reviews. Click here [...]
There’s a really interesting new documentary being released next week about Video Nasties. For those of you who aren’t in the UK or are too young to remember, hundreds of horror movies were banned here in the 1980′s as a result of an over-zealous attempt to introduce censorship legislation to deal with the rapidly expanding [...]
Regular readers of this site will know I’m a fan of Scott Sigler and his books Infected, Contagious and Ancestor. Scott recently read DOG BLOOD, and I was really pleased to find this very cool endorsement of the book on his site. Cheers Scott!
