Biography

I am a British independent press editor and publisher (the Alchemy Press). So far I have published or co-published six books including the award-winning Where the Bodies are Buried by Kim Newman. The Alchemy Press has recently started to produce eBooks – and more will follow.

I have edited and produced (design and layouts) titles for the British Fantasy Society (including Dark Horizons, Winter Chills and Chills). I have also chaired both the BFS and the annual British Fantasy Convention.

I write fiction, reviews, edit manuscripts (including proof-reading and line edits) for other writers, and I co-created and chair a writers' group (Renegade Writers).

In 2009 I sat as one of the judges for the prestigious World Fantasy Awards.

And I also take photographs, many of writers, editors and artists at various conventions.

Other blogs I contribute to include Alchemy Press, Alchemy Press Editorial Services, Alchemy Writers, Piper at the Gates of Fantasy (for general fantasy news), Renegade Writers and Shiny Shorts -- please use the links list on the home page to visit these.
