I’m 40 years old and live in Staffordshire in the UK. I’m as much in love with the world of film as I am with literature. My tastes are varied, but the horror genre feeds my imagination the most.
I regularly attend Film 4’s Frightfest film festival in London, and have met some of my heroes and heroines there. I’m hoping one day to meet my all time favourite author, Clive Barker...we’ll see.
Until then, I’m working hard on my horror/fantasy trilogy, the Fallen Gods Saga. Book 1, Sanctuary 12, and Book 2, Fallen Gods: Infanticide, are available now. The final instalment, Fallen Gods: Mind over Matterless is my current project and should be ready early 2015.
I have several more projects lined up, including a possible comic book! I hope you will find something you like within my work. If you like your romance dark and bloody, why not try my novella, The Last Cut is Always the Deepest.
One of the biggest tragedies in modern fiction is the lack of strong female characters. I don’t subscribe to this idea that a strong female in fantasy has to jump around doing martial arts in a tight costume. My female characters distinguish themselves by having a strong moral core, and being able to think under pressure without giving in to fear-induced aggression. I hope my characters offer something a little different for both female and male readers.
You may find my love for monsters quite apparent in my books. That’s because I adore them. We are all monsters in the end, aren’t we? Some beautiful, some not so much.
I would be very interested to speak to you, even if it’s just to talk about horror in general. Feel free to follow me on Twitter or drop a comment on my website. Take care until then, fellow monsters.
