My latest short to be published is now available in “Weird Ales Volume 3: Last Orders‘. “The Dunwich Cold One” is a bit of a Lovecraftian tale which should be clear from the title but with some a fun little drinking environment thrown in. A different twist on some of the mythos that I’m sure some purists will be up in arms about but you can’t make everyone happy!
Still, I had a lot of fun writing this one and hope that you enjoy reading it. The subject pretty much involved about the title “weird ales” and how that could relate to our stories. I decided that I’d like to dip into a pub which has just received a brand new ale to try from a local brewery. Only, if it has Dunwich in the name, things are going to go from bad to worse rather quickly.
Note: At the time of this posting only physical and not digital copies are available for order.
