If you ask his wife, John Quick is compelled to tell stories because he’s full of baloney. He prefers to think he simply has an affinity for things that are strange, disturbing, and terrifying. As proof, he will explain how he suffered Consequences, transcribed The Journal of Jeremy Todd, and regaled the tale of Mudcat. He lives in Middle Tennessee with his aforementioned long-suffering wife, two exceptionally patient kids, four dogs that could care less so long as he keeps scratching that perfect spot on their noses, and a cat who barely acknowledges his existence. ...more

Yeah, I Know...

One of the things I always wondered about when I first made this site was how often I'd actually keep up with it. I did well for a while, and then it kind of fell by the wayside thanks to the loads of other stuff I've been doing. Well, I doubt that's going to get better any time soon, but I did at least do a few updates to reflect my release schedule for the rest of 2019 and 2020, and the current Read more of this blog post »

John Quick answered Kathryn's question: Are there any plans for Mudcat to come back in (physical copy) print? I really want to read it. I love underwater monster books and books set in Tennessee (my home state too). Sorry it took a while for this, but I rarely scan the question section on here, lol. Hopefully you've already seen, but MUDCAT did indeed make a return in both digital and print, and is available as we speak on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08J59 See Full Answer

John Quick and 69 other people liked Edward Lorn's review of Devil's Creek: "OUT NOW!!! DEVIL'S CREEK is the horror event of the decade. While reminiscent of the heyday of small-town terror, Keisling rises above his inspirations, creating lore that is far deeper than the evil coursing beneath this town. I could point to the ma" Read more of this review »
