The morning after Sarah killed her father, the air tasted like lead and the sky was gun metal grey. She stared out of the window of her East London flat, barely focusing on the rows of concrete blocks being smudged by the Autumn rain. The ensuing days of gloom collided with weeks and the weeksContinue reading “The Friend Catcher”

Anger Management at 10th Rule Radio
10th Rule Radio is a branch of 10th Rule Books and ‘is an old school radio serial featuring bad ass pulp fiction that skips the boring parts.

Dave Wilde Reviews 13 Shots Of Noir
Over at Goodreads, he says: ‘These are all good stories. “The Tut” begins with the unforgettable line: “After enduring forty-five years of a marriage that was at best, like wading through treacle, Oliver Robinson eventually had enough and smothered his wife with the beige corduroy cushion that he’d accidentally burned with a cigarette two fraughtContinue reading “Dave Wilde Reviews 13 Shots Of Noir”

Short, Sharp Interview: Gareth Spark
PDB: What’s going on now?

13 Shots Of Noir reviewed at Everythingnoir.
’13 Shots of Noir is a short story collection from Paul D. Brazill. All 13 of these stories are very short and snappy.

His characters have sharp tongues and use smart ass remarks mixed withContinue reading “13 Shots Of Noir reviewed at Everythingnoir.”
