Nostalgia meets creepy goings-on in my latest short story, ‘The Old Fisherman’s Track’, which is now live on The Dread Machine.

There’s a fair bit of autobiography in this story, although it’s mixed in with a great deal of blue-sky imagination. It was a harder sell than I’d envisioned, perhaps because it’s too fun and misty-eyed to be an outright horror tale and yet doesn’t have much in the way of literary pretensions.

I hope you like it. Don’t forget to check out the ‘story behind the story’ once you’ve read it – and do get in touch and let me know what you thought of it.
