My name is Oliver Brackenbury. I’m a screenwriter & author. I grew up around the corner from a five story deep cold war bunker, as one does, and can now be found living not far from a popular 1,815.4 ft tower in Toronto.
My first novel, JUNKYARD LEOPARD, was released through the Bad Day Books imprint of Assent Publishing. The book trailer and more can be found at www.junkyardleopard.com
I’m currently working on my third novel, a sword & sorcery short story cycle, and am putting out a podcast about my work on it. You can check that out at www.soimwritinganovel.com or by searching for "So I'm Writing a Novel..." wherever you get your podcasts.
Great survey of sword and sorcery fiction with some supporting articles and interview with Howard Andrew Jones.
Top stories for me-- and I really, really liked them: In the Dissolving City - Audrey Stllings The Maiden of the Serpent Moon - Premee Mohamed
Very intriguing, want to re-read - Lament of a Shieldman - Sage Curtis- I had no idea where this was going and I started to be annoyed by it's kind of circular and meandering nature, but I found the conclusion quite interesting and brought back to a Clark Ashton Smith-type fatalism even.
