Just turned in the final story for my anthology, Warriors and Wenches. It will be published by Melange Books, probably mid-June 2011. Written under my pseudonym, J.T. Macleod, it contains five stories of historical and supernatural adventure, romance, and eroticism. From medieval Japan to WWII and present-day Hollywood (with Arthurian Knights!). Put the date in your calendar.

The publishers of the ebook version of Bone Machines, Just Imagine It Ink, have a terrific contest open for emerging authors. Got a book in you – give them a go!

Having listened to Scott Sigler’s fantastic, original and deeply weird horror podcast, Infected, I will never look at a three-sided polygon in the same way ever again. Scott is also a good guy (if a little strange), who plugged Bone Machines in episode 6 of his Galactic Football novel, The Starter. Scott – you are a star. But I still think you’re really weird. Folks – buy Scott’s books – right now!

Move over Philip Marlowe and Sam Spade, there’s a new PI in town – check out Nicholas Stanton’s The Gumshoe Diaries, for the start of what promises to be a terrific new noir series out of LA.

I’ve decided to offer the ebook of Dr North’s Wound and Other Stories for a limited period, at the new price of $2.99. Nab it now while the price is low. Here are some reviews of stories within it:
The Anatomy of Seahorses: “With the possible exception of the [Dean R.] Koontz story, The Anatomy of Seahorses by John Dodds is the very best the Horror Express Magazine has to offer.” – Peter Tenant, Whispers of Wickedness
Dr North’s Wound: “John Dodds is one of the most promising new writers I have read for some time. I highly recommend his work.” Michael Moorcock

Second version, available as a free ebook from smashwords, published by my great friends at the admirable Just ImaginitInk.
Adventures in Scifi Publishing said: “a fantastic page-turner…each page is filled with vibrant description and seethes with tension.”

…or a nunnery, if you can’t handle the rough stuff. I highly recommend Donna’s Scottish crime fiction blog, Big Beat from Badsville.
