A Halloween Woodland Walk
I went for a Halloween woodland walk through my local woods today, where I saw a witch!
A Bit of Morning Research
I do love the research stage of writing a story. So many coalescing ideas. So many paths to choose from. Which route will I follow?
Story-boarding Solstice Story 2
I started story-boarding my second tale of Solstice today. This is the first major scene in Story 2 (there are a couple of minor set-up scenes preceding this) and details the hallucinatory occurrence that really gets the action going in the story. This is also the scene that is explained more fully (and rationally) in the third tale in the portmanteau series of connecting festive folk horror tales that will eventually feature in my forthcoming book Solstice.

I hope to get this second tale, which is titled Amanita muscaria, published initially as a stand-alone story later next year. In the meantime, the first title in the Solstice series, The Dryad, is available to purchase now from Amazon.

The Dryad, the first of four connected festive folk horror short stories from my forthcoming portmanteau novel Solstice, has now been published (and is available here). One down, three to go...

Continuing last year's Horror Pop Funko Halloween, here is the scarier special edition version of this fella. Jeepers!
Damn Those Squinting/Dangling Modifiers
Grammar sorted (damn those squinting and dangling modifiers). Now just a final read-through/edit before this thing gets published (hopefully well in time for the Christmas market).
Nostalgia #2
My grandmother gave me the gardening bug, and there are several plants I regularly grow in memory of her love for the flowers. Amongst their number are these precious beauties - Night-scented Stock:
Nostalgia #1
Old Manor Ware ornament from the early 1970s. My father used to buy these on his trips around the country as a coach driver and they have always fascinated me.
