A lot of my best ideas come to me when I'm in a dream state (a bit like Luke Raven, really). I'll often get inspiration while I'm asleep or I'll wake up thinking 'no, that bit of the story is wrong!' or 'this character needs to be written completely differently'. I suppose that all of the obstacles your conscious mind puts in the way of creativity are completely removed when you are unconscious or semi-conscious and so, yeah, new stories can be born or existing stories can be improved or expanded upon. Of course, alcohol also works (although I'm not endorsing abusing it).(less)

The whole world that you put down on the page is entirely controlled by you - although, I often get the sense that the story is pulling me along rather than me pushing it onto the keyboard. I always say that it feels like when the tracking on your tyres goes a bit awry and the car starts gradually dragging you right or left - when the story starts to do that my sense it to let it take me where it wants to go. Whenever I've tried to fight it I've been pretty dissatisfied with the results. So, yeah - the creativity. That's the best thing.(less)

New Horror Novel Release

My latest book, a horror-fantasy thriller entitled The Faraway People, hit the shelves yesterday, and I couldn't be happier with how it's turned out. The fantastically creepy cover art depicting the horned god, Cernunnos, and the Terrible Babies, was created by @DansMonsters. If you like cults, mythical creatures, the occult, and plenty of thrills, then you'll enjoy this one. The book is available Read more of this blog post »

“The ghosts came to him, one by one, pleading for him to release them from their hellish purgatory. He saw each and every face, felt their terror penetrate his soul, cried tears of sorrow with them, told them that he wished that he could do more, could have done more. The young lovers, their lives taken before they could make any sort of connection, the swim shorts guy who had left behind a loving family, the homeless lady – what had she ever done to anyone to deserve such a horrendous and bloody fate? And they were stuck in this wet and dark place until what? Until Raven could release them? How the hell could he do that? It was as if his hands were bound by some invisible and yet immensely powerful force.”
Stacey Dighton, The Hawk and the Raven

“He wiped the back of his hand across his running nose, gripped the lid between his finger and thumb and pulled it upwards. There nestled in blue tissue paper was a finger, topped with a long, pink fingernail and adorned with two gold rings, one with a green emerald at its centre. The tissue at the knuckle was dark red with dried, flaking blood.
Teddy dropped it like it was scalding hot and pushed himself back across his bed to the wall by the window.
‘What the fuck!’
‘Don’t worry. She didn’t suffer. I gave her that much respect, not that she deserved it.”
Stacey Dighton, The Hawk and the Raven

“She approached the couple and watched them for a moment. They looked pathetic, writhing down there in the sand and fumbling at each other’s clothes like desperate, love-struck teenagers. They disgusted her.
The male sensed her presence and turned to face her. She immediately noticed the fear behind his stubborn glare and it aroused her. Her scar throbbed and pulsated as she withdrew the knife from the sheaf and dragged it across his throat. As the blade tore through flesh and sinew she once more heard the retort of the rifle, felt her cheekbone shatter. The blood poured from him just as the blood had spurted from the wound in the deer’s throat.”
