Hope everyone at Brighton World Fantasy has a grand time. We were at the previous Brighton one in 2013 and it was fantastic.

A graphic featuring two swans on an icy canal, a book cover for an anthology called Absolute Zero, and the text: "A former Glasgow policeman haunted by an inexplicably brutal murder. A young couple sleepwalking towards disaster. Cold Case"
I'm not known for historical fiction but a while back I wrote a story set in Glasgow in 1960, a time when there were a number of infamous murder sprees. It's a story about the human cost of working on those criminal cases involving absolutely inexplicable inhumanity.

If you don't already know @salopress.bsky.social , check them out. They are a small publisher based in the UK and (although I'm slightly biased) I think they publish some brilliant work.

Front cover of Paris Fantastique, a collection of short stories by Nicholas Royle, published by Confingo. Cover is typographical on an olive background. Accompanied by three black and white photographs. One shows a strange figure in a window, the second shows a woman walking under a picture of Franz Kafka, and the third shows three sets of feet behind a barrier near a shop called Le Mirage
Book post! The final volume of @nicholasroyle.bsky.social's trilogy of uncanny stories set in London, Manchester and Paris. Lovely ohotos too! @confingopublishing.bsky.social
