Grimm Up North 2
Apologies for the serious lack of updates recently – I've got plenty to tell you about, but finding time to post has been impossible. Ahh… that great British tradition of 6 week long summer holidays from school. As a kid it was immense – an undoubted highlight of the year. As a dad of many, trying to balance a stack of deadlines and work from home, it's a complete bitch! I've been for a flight in a hot air balloon, spent a week at the seaside, made a few trips to the cinema and we're only at ...

Kind words from the FDO
Regular readers of this site will know I'm a fan of Scott Sigler and his books Infected, Contagious and Ancestor. Scott recently read DOG BLOOD, and I was really pleased to find this very cool endorsement of the book on his site.
Cheers Scott!

Remain Indoors!
I've been doing a lot of press for DOG BLOOD recently and I've regularly been asked about my favourite movies. As you've probably guessed from my books (it doesn't take a genius!), post-apocalyptic films are my thing.
My brain needs some serious recharging right now, and talking about all those classics has made me want to watch them again. So that's what I'm planning to do. And I've decided I'll write something about each of them for this site: what I liked about them, what I didn't like...

I was David Carradine's mom
[image error]The AUTUMN movie gets another DVD release in the US this week. There's a nice little article on Fangoria.com about the experiences of Diane Salema, a presenter on MTV Canada who appeared in the film (under a ton of make-up) as Mrs Evans...

Spread the Infection – the AUTUMN books are coming back!
Those of you who caught the AUTUMN books first time around will probably remember my 'Spread the Infection' tagline. I used it for years, and I'm sure it was responsible to some degree for the book's journey from free pdf to half a million downloads, a movie
, an audio adaptation, and now mainstream publication.
They've been unavailable for far too long, but the re-release of the AUTUMN series is close at hand. The first book is out in late October (US and UK – click the covers for...

Bring classic horror back to the BBC
I don't know how many of you are like me… thirty-something (very close to forty-something) and UK based. If you're not then this post may not be relevant. Sorry about that, but this is something I'm passionate about!
Growing up as a young horror fan in the UK in the 1980′s, it was bloody hard to find any decent movies to watch. Dumb politicians, moralistic idiots and misguided religious fools conspired to strip our shelves of everything even mildly horrific.
Some of my earliest horror movie...

HATER- Ódio Mortal
The Brazilian edition of HATER – Ódio Mortal – will shortly be published by ARX. Click here for more information.
Yet another very different cover design. I think it's really interesting how much variety there already is in the approaches taken by different publishers. You can see all the current covers here, and there are still numerous other countries (including Russia, Romania, Japan and Korea to name but several) to go!
