The story of how it came to be makes for good reading... He was set a challenge by his younger sister Helen to write a zombie story for all ages, so he set to work using his mobile phone, originally tapping away between legal breaks or waiting to load/unload at his place of work, before posting directly to facebook for anyone who wanted to read.

There is such a thing as over thinking though, sometimes if I can't get something to feel right in my head, I'll go write something completely different, say a poem, or recently a short collection of children's bedtime stories I just published. At the opposite end of the horror/thriller of my first novel and a million miles away from the second, even though I already knew what the second would be roughly. They say a change is as good as a rest, it is very true, let your mind wander and what you seek you will find, even if you have to wait awhile for it to come.(less)

For my potential fans, I hope they will take something from my stories, that they take them to the same places they take me as I write each line.

Salby Evolution

The sequel to my first novel, Salby Damned is now under way. To be called Salby Evolution, it will be along similar lines with a few more intriguing plots and twists and some new characters thrown in. Nathan and Evie will fight again and may well do so through into the future, who knows? I'm also working on a somewhat more macabre novel called Being Within which has sort of taken the back burner f Read more of this blog post »
