“I see you’ve been doing the place up a bit. Hmm, I don’t like it.”

Thursday? Who blogs on a Thursday? Me, I do, because it’s been a while and it’s about time for an update.

First off, this is the official release schedule for the remainder of 2012:

The Last Post and The End of War are available now on Amazon.

The Thing Behind the Door will be released on Monday 29th October

This Darkness Mine will be released on Monday 19th November

Night Residue will be released on Monday 3rd December

So what comes after that? What’s in the works for 2013?

“Everything has to come to an end, sometime.”- L. Frank Baum

Change. Big change. As some of you will know, I have been experimenting with other genres this year to see if there are others I could break into and, more importantly, wanted to. I can now confirm that in 2013 I will be moving away from Horror to write an Epic Fantasy series. Some of the inspirations include Robert E. Howard, Michael Moorcock and Karl Edward Wagner.

“…(Robert E.) Howard takes great care to develop mood and atmosphere in his best stories, and in so doing makes the reader feel the dark, desperate undercurrent of his character’s schemes and struggles. It is in this that I feel closest to Howard, and it is something that his conscious imitators have never captured. …in Howard’s fiction the underlying black mood of pessimism is always there…” – Karl Edward Wagner

The titles for the books in the series will be: Darkness Dawns, Far Gone and Lost is the Night & Shadowhorn. The first story featuring the main character, Khale Fellhorn, will be available to read as a preview this Sunday.

The title of this introductory tale is Each Dawn, I Die.

There will be more to come regarding my new direction and new series shortly.
