Hello. My name is F.R. Jameson.
[image error]
And I write horror and noir thrillers. I also used to keep this blog fairly up to date, but at the moment – with life, a small child and a busy writing schedule – I’m finding it harder and harder to keep on top of it. So for now, with a certain amount of regret, I am putting it on hiatus.
If you would like to receive some fortnightly ramblings from me, then please do sign up to my news

| In many ways a terrifying memoir, with a mother who could haunt a fairy-tale, but in the end it felt almost hopeful. As if anything could be overcome. I was invested to, at points, feeling overwhelmed by what was happening on the page. I didn't know ...more | |

| A good airport novel. The plot is preposterous, however the whole is a lot of fun. But then I have read this while actually in Barcelona, so I’m really conditioned to enjoy it. | |

Another ten years in Palin’s life. The ten years where he properly became a national treasure. Always interesting, and occasionally touching. Perhaps because of what’s going to happen in the next volume, there’s a lot of Terry Jones included here. Sp ...more |

| Probably the best Bosch novel I’ve read thus far. Really gripping and twisty. Connolly still overuses the phrase ‘a long moment’ however. | |

| A great deal of fun. Really captures the Fourth Doctor and the air of optimistic absurdity which surrounds him. It led me to listen to some Fela Kuti this week, which I also enjoyed. | |

| A rambling memoir from the other most important member of Blondie, but one which feels superb on NYC in the late seventies and eighties. Really capturing the place. Curiously, someone you don’t get a good grasp on in this book is Debbie Harry herself ...more | |

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.
Cheers FR,From one Richard Stark fan to another.

Read some of your short stories and thoroughly loved them. I have to see about getting my hands on your book! I think "Wilderness" was my favorite.
Hi F.R.,Thanks for befriending this fellow mystery/suspense author!

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!
