Cover reveal! YOU DON’T BELONG HERE
Guys! My novel has a front cover!
I’m immensely proud of this cover – it really isn’t the easiest novel to encapsulate in an illustration – and I owe huge thanks to the wonderful Emma Barnes at Snowbooks.
The lovely quote from Adam Roberts doesn’t hurt, either. (Have you read Bête and The Thing Itself yet? Do, do, do.)
Announcement: a novel!
I’ve been a little quiet recently, but now I can reveal what I’ve been working on…
I HAVE A NOVEL COMING OUT.
I’m thrilled to announce that my first full-length novel, YOU DON’T BELONG HERE, will be published by Snowbooks next year. It’ll be out in paperback and ebook in September 2016.
It’s a time-travel psychological thriller. Here’s a blurb, though almost certainly not the final one:
Daniel Faint is on the run with a stolen time machine. As the house-sitter of a remote Cumbrian mansion, he hopes to hide and experiment with the machine. But is the Manor being watched by locals, his twin brother or himself from the future? Daniel is terrified about what the future may hold but, as he discovers, there can be no going back.
I’ve previously posted about this book under its working title, The House-sitter. I started writing it in January 2014 and it’s changed dramatically over the course of eight drafts. Even though I’m now sick of the sight of it, I’m proud of it, too.
The book is in really good hands. Emma and the Snowbooks team have been lovely and I’m really looking forward to working closely with them over the coming months. And it’s wonderful to tell people about it, finally. So I’m going to write this out again, because it feels good:
I HAVE A NOVEL COMING OUT.
More details soon.
Game Over anthology
The Game Over anthology is published by Snowbooks today!
It features my story, ‘Lines of Fire’, about two teen boys, an old Bomberman arcade cabinet, and a dark secret.
The eleven other horror stories all feature arcade games in some way and are written by a pretty illustrious group of authors. I’m very proud to be hanging around with them and I’d like to thank editor Jonathan Green for a) picking my story, b) making excellent editorial changes and c) turning the project around with incredible speed.
You can buy Game Over direct from the publisher, or from Amazon UK (print / epub) or Amazon.com (epub).
Game Over anthology acceptance
I’m really pleased that one of my stories will feature in the GAME OVER anthology from Snowbooks, edited by Jonathan Green. And there’s not long to wait — it’ll be available in a couple of weeks!
