HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2024 IN REVIEW. WHAT'S COMING IN '25.

I published a new book in 2024 - ALL THE FIENDS OF HELL - and with some trepidation. It was alien territory for me and also took a long time to land; I nibbled at versions of the ideas and story in a novella, short story and screenplay, over several years, before writing the novel. And yet, the enthusiasm for the book this year has left me feeling relieved, confirmed, grateful and heart-warmed.
