The Tract of Calvanicus - to be published in Lovecraftiana Magazine

I have just had my first acceptance this New Year, though the story won't appear till 2027.

Lovecraftiana Magazine from Rogue Planet Press and edited by Gavin Chappell, will be publishing my story "The Tract of Calvanicus" in its Lammas Eve (August) issue next year.  

 

My story The Triptych of Hell is in the latest issue of Lovecraftiana

My story The Triptych of Hell is in the latest issue of Lovecraftiana, though you would be forgiven for not realising this as my name, for some reason, has been accidentally ommitted from all reference to it in the issue on amazon. Oh well, the story is still there nevertheless.

The Triptych of Hell to be published in Lovecraftiana magazine

My Lovecraftian short story The Triptych of Hell is to be published in the Candlemas (February) 2024 issue of Lovecraftiana magazine.

The story was inspired by the collaborative illustration used for the front cover of the Phantasmagoria Magazine's Fantasy Tales Special between Jim Pitts, Dave Carson and Allen Koszowsky. 

The latest issue of Lovecraftian: The Magazine of Eldritch Horror

I received the latest issue of Lovecraftiana: The Magazine of Eldtrich Horror today, appropriately enough Halloween.

This issue includes my 12,000 word story The Psychic Investigator, which is set in my fictitious Grudge End. 

My story The Psychic Investigator is in the next issue of Lovecraftiana Magazine

I am pleased to see that my story The Psychic Investigator will be in the next issue of Lovecraftiana Magazine (Halloween 2022).

I have had a number of stories in the Lovecraftiana Magazine but these have always, till now, been reprints. This is the first brand-new story I have purposefully written for the magazine to appear in it.

Though the title might not sound Lovecraftian, believe me it is. It is also set in one of my favourite fictitious places: Grudge End.
