About this author

Hi.

Thanks for stopping by.

My second novel "Hell’s Secrets" was published at the start of 2012. Like all my fiction it falls into the genre of horror/supernatural thriller, and is about a man who leaps at the chance to change his life and comes to bitterly regret it.

"The Wannabes", my first novel, was published in 2008 (and is soon to be re-released as an ebook) and is a dream-filled murder mystery. While I have written numerous short stories, some of which are available on my website – www.frjameson.co.uk.

I made a resolution at the start of 2012 to be more productive, so am currently finished off another book while writing a regular – part-real/part-fictional – blog.

Feel free to get in touch.

FRJ.


In my dream last night I was stood outside the Surrey Quays shopping centre knowing that something awful was going to emerge from below. Of course I’ve had this dream so many times, I’m aware what’s going to happen before there’s a single tremor or hint of disturbance. But last night was different, the fear and intensity of the vision was so incredible that it was impossible to believe for even... read more »

Reading this ambitious zombie novel I started to ponder why glibness and an arched cleverness work so well in cinema (for example, the ‘Scream’ movies) but can fall dead flat in a novel. Maybe it’s because watching a film is more of a fleeting experi...more

Reading this directly after Kingsley Amis’s ‘Colonel Sun’, really does show up the flaws in this other ‘literary’ Bond novel. For a start, Faulks does not get anywhere near as close to Fleming’s voice as Amis did. Whereas ‘Colonel Sun’ could have bee...more

Jo I don't know enough Y. Ripper history to know why he was named as Peter Williams in the book and not Sutcliffe. I shall have to ask an older colleague who was a uni student at the time of the murders so remembers it all very well.

Beth Hi F.R.,
Thanks for befriending this fellow mystery/suspense author!

Elizabeth Hi, glad to be your friend on Good Reads!

In the UK? How exciting to meet a fellow author across the pond. I am in California with ancestry links to Redwood Castle in Ireland through my da's Irish Clan.

I've not read much horror, (and I am a cozy mystery author, greatly influenced by the British cozy authors) of horror genre, I have read classics from Peter Straub, E.A. Poe and a few others.

I was a Finalist Judge for the Eppies this year and surprisingly one of the novels I was given to judge was horror. It was so very well-writtten I gave it the highest possible score!
