Red Station (Reviewed by Richard Martin)
“It was the hour of fresh blood, and the land was ravenous.” The opening sentence of Kenzie Jennings’s new book, Red Station, part of Death’s Head Press’s ‘Splatter Western’ series, is perhaps my favorite opener of any book I have read this year. What I particularly like, other than it being a great line, is […]
The Writing Life: Reflections, Recollections, And a Lot of Cursing (Reviewed by Richard Martin)
If 2020 has given us anything this year, it has been a stellar lineup of non-fiction books about writing horror, whether that be the practicalities, or in the form of a memoir. I previously gave a glowing review to Brian Keene’s brilliant End of the Road. To round out the year that also gave us […]

Shane is spending his twenty-first birthday in Thailand, with his best mate Paul. There to fight in a kickboxing […]

Pug Grumble is the author of Ouch which received a recommendation from IndieMuse as a quality new humor release. Pug is also the creator of the comic series Farlaine the Goblin. Pug was nice enough to set some time aside for me to interview him and ask him a few questions relating to his new […]
