Blog postOne of the few upsides to the pandemic that’s keeping us in our homes is that it’s also enabling me to attend conventions which have transformed into virtual events.
Thanks to the miracle of high-speed fibre broadband (for which I am daily grateful) I can beam into festivals around the world and take part on panels with a wide variety of people, many of whom I might not ordinarily meet.
I’m terribly pleased to be a programme participant at the online iteration of Boskone 2021 -
Blog postThe nominees for the ICN Awards 2020 have been announced, and it’s a terrific testament to the variety of content being published by Irish comic book creators in small and big presses at home and abroad.

I’m honoured to be represented in the Best Irish Writer (Major Publisher) category for my story ‘The Thief of Senses’ in the Misty & Scream Special 2020 and in the Best Irish Writer (Non-Fiction) f -
Blog postI took the above picture last night as the sun set over the fishing village of Kinvara, with my back to the cold medieval stonework of Dunguaire Castle. The frigid Atlantic wind numbed my face and fingers as I listened to the crash of the fulminating waves. It was a fitting setting to watch the last day of 2020 burn down into darkness.

Blog postThe Sinister Horror Company has created a creepy Advent Calendar for the end of 2020, with a new horror flash story by a different author for every day in December.
My story ‘Pay the Toll’ is the 29th of December entry.
You can read it on the SHC’s web site, but here’s the opening section:
The day after Christine broke up with Dean she bought knives. A seven-piece stainless steel set, on special in Argos for Christmas. Their silicon handles ranged in rainbow hues from -
Blog postA light!
You have stumbled through this boggy undergrowth, pushing through the twilight mist, for what feels like an age. How did you begin this journey? The damp greyness leeches all memories. Your entire focus has been the mechanical lifting and placing of weary feet onto uncertain ground, the only sound your laboured breath.
That glimmer after the trees quickens your heart. Answers. Warmth. Company!
You slog forward, renewed.
Hours later the gap remains. The -

Blog postThought Bubble Comic Art Festival is the UK’s biggest annual event focused exclusively on comic books, and it’s the one event most comic people professionals make a concerted effort to attend. I’ve really enjoyed every Thought Bubble I’ve been at, and I had already purchased my ticket for this year’s event… and then the pandemic swept across the globe.
This year Thought Bubble is entirely free and virtual, which isn’t the same, but is a different kind of exciting. You can watch their -
Blog postWhen I discovered the nominations for the British Fantasy Society’s British Fantasy Awards 2020 had been announced I clicked through to the web site to see which of my friends had been nominated… and much to my astonishment I saw my name!
