BIO

To his self-deprecating astonishment he's also been nominated for the Story South’s Million Writers Award twice without sending the judges so much as a thank you note. He co-edited the satiric transgressive fiction collection D*CKED: DARK FICTION INSPIRED BY DICK CHENEY and his debut novel KOKO TAKES A HOLIDAY is out now from Titan Books.

It Now Gets Juicy: WIP

"Blood is a juice with curious properties." - Mephistopheles Faust

Reaching the end of the edit on the WIP, and it is fairly frenzied.  So much action you need to to be careful you don't rush it. But there's light at the end of the tunnel. I had been shooting for April 1st for finishing up this pass, but always things look easier at the start. 2nd pass is faster. Lots of good news from the publicist yesterday regarding KOKO TAKES A HOLIDAY. Seems in the coming weeks there I'll be interviewed a heck of a lot. Onward.
