Congratulations Permuted Press
Congratulations to my friends at Permuted Press who've announced a deal with Pocket Books (a division of Simon & Schuster) to release seven of their titles including 'Day by Day Armageddon
', 'Down the Road
' and 'Plague of the Dead
'.
This is absolutely great news. Jacob Kier (owner of Permuted) and I started out around the same time and we first crossed paths when my story 'Home' appeared in the first Permuted title – 'The Undead
'. For several years we ran reciprocal adverts for

Disappearing act
Apologies for my sudden disappearance and lack of updates last month. I had a few things to deal with and deadlines to hit etc. etc. etc.
Anyway, I'm back now and there will be plenty of updates in the coming days and weeks. Not least, a look at how this happened…
Yes, that's the IMDB movie meter and yes, that's the Autumn movie making a gain of 5000% in popularity and hitting the top 50 movies last month!
More to follow…

David Carradine
By now I’m sure you’ve already heard the tragic news that David Carradine was found dead in a Bangkok hotel room today.
Unfortunately I never met the man himself (I missed him by a few days when I visited the set of Autumn) but I’ve heard many great stories from the Renegade team. He was a total legend who leaves behind a vast legacy of film and TV work and he’ll be greatly missed. I grew up watching him in Kung-fu then, as I got older and my taste in movies developed, I got to know him again thr

RAGE!
The French edition of HATER, RAGE
, will be published by Milady on 5th June. They’ve put a great piece up about the book on their blog here.
And check out the cover! It’s more frightening than the book! At least I’ll have no problems proving I wrote it if ever I’m in France! Thanks to the team at SFX Magazine for giving their permission for the image to be used. You can order RAGE from Amazon.fr now.

Unique HATER giveaway
I’ve been clearing out (more news on what else I’ve found later) and I’ve come across a few little gems hidden away. One of these ‘treasures’ is a mint condition copy of the original Infected Books paperback edition of HATER. For those who don’t know, the movie deal and the deal with Thomas Dunne Books came shortly after I originally released the book and very few copies of the Infected Books version were produced (no more than 1500, I think).
I’m giving the book away in conjunction with my frien

Press
A great interview has just gone live at Dogmatika. Click here to read it. Also, check the new issue of Deathray magazine for an excellent HATER review:
“It’s a bleak world view but one that transcends wallowing in self pity thanks to Moody’s intuitive characterisation. Make no mistake, this is humanity seen through a frighteningly dark lens, and while we may be unsettled by what we read, it’s the job of books such as this to make us confront the allure and repulsion of our taboos.
