Well where do I start?
That intro makes it sound like I’m up to sooo much fun stuff and have so many interesting facts to share about myself, but it’s all pretty boring really.
I write stories where scary stuff happens, I blog about nonsense, I am an amateur serial killer in the making, and I love snuggling up with my cute little kittens in front of a warm fire (only one of those statements is false).
I enjoy reading, which is a good thing if you want to write, as you need to know how to do it properly! King, Kafka, Palahniuk, Barker, Lovecraft, Jackie Collins; all the greats.
Films, yes I like them. Food, I enjoy eating it. Drums, I love banging them.
I hope to take over the world one day and make everyone listen to ear-shattering grindcore at all times, to only complain that my music is becoming too mainstream.
And that’s it really. Oh yeah, I also have a GSOH, although you’d probably doubt that if you ever met me.

Book Review – Non-Practicing Cultist by Scott J Moses
I’m a sucker for cults; reading or watching about them, of course, not actually joining them. Not yet anyway. Add to my cult-loving another SSS! release that deals with this subject matter, I just had to get involved. Jim is… Read More ›

Book Review – Autotomy Cocktail by Zachary Ashford
I’m not going to start this review with the inevitable ‘These SSS! releases keep getting better and better’ blah blah blah. Oh dear. Scrap that idea then! Wow, this was one crazy ride. If you need convincing then let me just give… Read More ›

Book Review – The Dregs Trilogy by Chris Kelso
“The saviour of mankind will be suicide and its prophets are serial killers and film makers – apparently.” Right then, OK, where do I start with this one? I don’t often struggle with writing reviews, it’s usually pretty easy to sum… Read More ›

Book Review – Gods of the Dark Web by Lucas Mangum
I’d had this book on my wish list on a certain website for quite a while. And then Christmas came along and I got a shiny book-shaped present that contained this gory specimen. Things were looking up. The story jumps… Read More ›

Dante’s Inferno; Where’s all the Gore??
I’m not really sure what I expected from this. Dante’s The Divine Comedy is one of those books that we’ve all heard of, many of the themes and scenes making their way into the arts and popular culture to this… Read More ›

Book Review – Eye of the Brave by Halo Scot
This is the third book in Halo Scot’s Rift Cycle. I’m very much invested in these tales with the first two books being very much five star affairs in my opinion. You can read how much I loved them here… Read More ›

Book Review – The Bone Factory by Yolanda Sfetsos
Welcome to the city of Lorn. This shortish tale thrusts you right into this dystopian setting, never in elaborate over-explaining detail, but enough to make you feel the grime and taste the corruption. And what would be right at home… Read More ›
