BIBLIOGRAPHY

 

I am the recipient of the World Fantasy Award, The International Horror Guild Award and twelve British Fantasy Awards for editing magazines and anthologies (Fantasy Tales, Dark Voices: The Pan Book of Horror and Dark Terrors: The Gollancz Book of Horror). My first professional anthologies were New Writings in Horror & the Supernatural (two volumes) and The Satyr’s Head & Other Tales of Terror. More recently I’ve edited Phantoms of Venice, which was reprinted in paperback by Screaming Dreams in 2007, and Houses on the Borderland, a selection of novellas from The British Fantasy Society in 2008.

 

 

I have also been a genre fiction writer since the 1960s. Respected editor Hugh Lamb chose stories for two W. H. Allen anthologies in the 1970s, The Taste of Fear and Cold Fear and these provided the first high profile showcase for my work. Since then his fiction has been selected by, amongst other esteemed editors, Rosemary Pardoe (More Ghosts & Scholars), Francesco Cova (Kadath), Robert M. Price (The New Lovecraft Circle), Gary William Crawford (Gothic), Charles Grant (Final Shadows), Dave Reeder (Skeleton Crew), Mike Ashley (The Merlin Chronicles) and Stephen Jones (Best New Horror 2 and 7, The Mammoth Book of Werewolves). More recent appearances have been in When Graveyards Yawn (Crowswing Books), The Black Book of Horror 1 and 2 (Mortbury Press), Dark Reign (eBook from Screaming Dreams), Dead Ends (Screaming Dreams), Subtle Edens: The Elastic Book of Slipstream (Elastic Press), The Black Book of Horror 4 and in The Ghosts & Scholars Book of Shadows (Sarob Press). The Fisherman, published in 2007 as a chapbook from Gary William Crawford’s Gothic Press, was selected by Stephen Jones for The Mammoth Book of Best New Horror 19. His debut short story collection is Clinically Dead & Other Tales of the Supernatural (Screaming Dreams). Further new stories are due in Allen Koszowski’s Inhuman magazine, an anthology from Horror Express, a further Black Book of Horror and Stephen Jones’ The Mammoth Book of Psycho Mania.
