Under the Stairs is now out and available on Amazon through Ossuary Press.
I was lucky to receive my authors copies earlier in the month but was too down and out from Covid to post about it (a parting gift from my trip to London in the first week of December, it seems).

I love the gorgeous artwork that introduces each story!
My home-based horror story “The Magpie” (penned under my pseudonym JM Connors) is coming out shortly in the Under The Stairs anthology by Ossuary Press.
It’s currently available for pre-order on Kindle, and paperbacks will become available shortly after the launch date on December 1st.
An author copy is on the way. I’ll be sure to post some photos when it arrives.
Don’t be too afraid to pick up a copy. It should be a bloody good read all around (Sorry for the awful Crypt keeper pun there. Okay, not sorry).

If it’s been a little quiet on the blog lately, it’s because there’s unfortunately only so many hours in a day (and of those hours, only so many that are leftover for maintaining things like this site…)
A short literary fiction piece I wrote earlier this year titled “The Roller Coaster” was just picked up by Litro – a literary magazine / website that has readers in the UK and USA.
It’s a bit of an odd story, one that I wrote to be fairly open-ended and maybe a little unsettling. It has to do with a university student whose close bond with a young woman falls apart after he discovers she harbours a secret fear of roller coasters.
My lightly speculative story “Brian Bumps His Head” about a man who wakes up from an accident with remarkable powers was previously published there in 2021.
I’ll update the post when I have a publication date from the editors.
