Manchester Book Market

The Manchester Book Market is taking place today and tomorrow. Roy Gray is making sure that Interzone and TTA Press are represented but there are plenty of other thing going on as well. Take a look at the link.

Dark Horizons 57

Dark Horizons 57 has now been published and contains fiction from Malcolm Laughton, Stephen Bacon, Charlotte Bond, Zachary Jernigan and – tra-la – me. Louise Morgan interviews Mark Charan Newton, Jenny Barber interviews Aliette de Boddard, Stephen Theaker interviews Allen Ashley, and Mike Barrett writes about the Ballantine Adult Fantasy Series. Poems a-plenty from Allen Ashley,  J.R. Salling, Graylin,  Sarah Doyle, Ian Hunter, Roy Gray,  Alessio Zanelli and Rick Coonrod. And it’s all wonderfully illustrated by Martin Hanford, John Shanks, Inna Hansen, Alf Klosterman, David Bezzina and Les Edwards.

Of course, to get it you have to join the British Fantasy Society. Or you can try and buy a copy at FantasyCon next weekend. However, if you join the BFS you will also get a copy of the latest Prism, not to mention £10 off the price of a FantasyCon ticket. What to do?

World Horror Convention

The 2010 World Horror Convention is underway in Brighton. I was supposed to tell you about Ian Hunter’s reading in the opening spot, but I thought tomorrow would be the first day. My goof. If you missed him, you missed a treat. Still, if you’re going to be there, make sure to buy lots of stuff from Roy Gray at the TTA Press stall in the Victoria room. Then you can head to a bar to network, spill beer over your TTA goodies, and go back to Roy to buy replacements.  Repeat for the duration.
