Unholy Gods, by William Long, is out now in paperback and ebook! About the book: On the furthest edge of the Outer Hebrides lies St. Budoc’s Island, a remote community steeped in centuries-old superstition. Marine biologist John Calvary escaped the remote Scottish island he grew up on after a traumatic event. Now, thirty years later, John has been called back to St. Budoc’s to investigate something from the depths of the Scottish seas that has washed up on its shore, something that is unearthing the island’s devastating secrets and causing the islanders to quietly unravel: The corpse of an unknown, colossal sea creature.

COVER REVEAL! AND HERE SHE IS... ISN’T SHE A BEAUTY? Not only that, but BLOODY HELL: An Anthology of UK Indie Horror is now LIVE on Amazon. It will take a little while for the paperback to populate on other websites. You can now pre-order the eBook via Amazon, and if you keep your fingers and toes crossed, you may also be able to pre-order the paperback prior to release too. Keep your eyes peeled for posts about a LIMITED EDITION SIGNED* AND NUMBERED RUN OF 100 HARDBACKS. Once these are gone, there will be no more hardbacks of this book. Each hardback will come with author goodies and a limited edition signed print of one of the illustrations from the book.

I went to the Write Cut Rewrite exhibit at the Bodleian library in Oxford, which looks at the history of book editing. It was fantastic. 📖 I loved seeing hand edited manuscripts by Jane Austen, Ian Fleming, Mary Shelley, and JRR Tolkien. 🧟‍♂️ Here are a few photos including a handwritten page of Frankenstein, with corrections added by Percy Shelley, and the very first instance of the phrase ‘murder your darlings’ from a lecture by Q. 📚 If you’re in Oxford, check it out! 🏛️ #frankenstein #maryshelley #percyshelley #murderyourdarlings #bookediting #editing #literaryediting #oxford #bodleianlibrary #westonlibrary #universityofoxford #oxford #stephenking #writerslife #horror #horrorbooks
