I was born in Dublin Ireland in the mid 1960’s and spent my teenage years
devouring all the books I could lay my hands on from Steven King, Graham
Masterton and James Herbert to Edgar Rice Burroughs and Alastair
McClean.
Added to this diet were a lot of horror movies: a few of my favourite ones
being The Exorcist, Nightmare on Elm Street, Evil Dead, Day of the Dead
and Alien.
I loved writing short stories in my teens but then college, career, marriage
and young children took all my attention for quite a number of years. Finally,
I found a little “me” time and started writing in earnest about 7 years ago.
My first published works were short stories in anthologies from genre US
publishers Black Death Books and Permuted Press.
Vampire Apocalypse: A World Torn Asunder is my first published novel
(Black Death Books). It has been tremendously received by reviewers and
the Film/TV rights are under option. The second Vampire Apocalypse book,
Descent into Chaos is now available for preorder from Black Death Books.
Forthcoming titles include a story in The Blackest Death Vol.III (early 2008,
Black Death Books) and more books in the Vampire Apocalypse series.
