Writing Thraxas

A poster from 2000 advertising the first three Thraxas books. Rather battered now, from moving house several times. After Orbit had agreed to publish the first book, they asked me to write another two to 'Establish a Presence on the Book Shelves,' I wrote these next two very quickly, much faster than I can manage now. The first Thraxas novel won the World Fantasy Award in 2000. I'm working on the thirteenth book in the series now, it will be available next year.

Troubled Cities - My Collection of Short Stories

Troubled Cities. I've been preparing this collection of short stories for some time and it's now imminent.

'There are many troubled people in these cities. Troubled werewolves and fairies too, jostling for space, arguing with their families, running from danger, or just wondering where their absent lovers might be. Comprising eight short stories, one short autobiographical piece and five extracts from my novels, Troubled Cities serves as both a collection of urban entertainment and an overview of my writing career.' 

Cover by Simon Fraser

TikTok

I've been using TikTok, in an ageing author sort of way. I've made three simple videos, for my two Supercute Books, for Lonely Werewolf Girl, and for Suzy Led Zeppelin and Me. Despite my videos being completely overwhelmed and lost in the vast ocean of TikTok, I'm quite pleased at my efforts.

My TikTok videos are here.
