Cover to Cover

Today I started the process of taking the formatted (for print) PDF of Tankbread and adding the expertly rendered cover and putting them together to make a printed edition of Tankbread.

The Createspace robot said my gutters weren't big enough - so I've sent it back to the formatter with a list of things I'd liked adjusted.



The cover looks great and also today, the artist David Naughton-Shires sent me this cover for the upcoming Knightwatch Press anthology I'm editing; Tales From The Bell Club

In The Weeds

The next story in 'The Man Who Could Not Climb Stairs and Other Strange Stories' was first published by Altair Books Australia in the 'Leaves of Blood' anthology this story was written around the idea of plant based horror. I immediately thought of biological warfare, and the sort of crazy things they might have come up with during the Vietnam War era. It was suggested at the time by the editor that the building in the story was an under-utilised horror element and I intend to revisit The Botanical Warfare Facility in a future story.
