Another big announcement to start off the week right. This is one that’s been in the wings for a little while now, but only just came together today. Valancourt Books, a fine (and, surprisingly, local) purveyor of rare Gothic and other excellent literature, just acquired the rights to reissue J.B. Priestley’s…

In spite of what the quote in the subject line there would imply, the present is actually pretty pleasant indeed, but the “lot of things to do” part is true enough. The two books that have been on their way out are both out now. The official release date for Fungi…

Continue reading →: Alfred Hitchcock Marathon Wrap-Up
After some setbacks, it looks like we managed to finish our Alfred Hitchcock marathon within the confines of the month of November after all, coming in, guns blazing to a three-movie pile up over the long Thanksgiving weekend. We still haven’t made it out to see Sacha Gervasi’s Hitchcock. We still hope…

We’re into the home stretch of our November Alfred Hitchcock marathon here at the Grey household. As I type this, we’re gearing up to watch Psycho. Which means that I should have a marathon wrap-up post coming to you very soon. When I started this project, I’d hoped to have…

For yesterday’s Next Big Thing post, I focused mainly on Never Bet the Devil & Other Warnings, but today I’m going to talk a little about my other book that’s coming out in just a couple of weeks, Fungi. I needed to talk about it anyway, to remind everyone that the pre-sale…

Continue reading →: The Next Big Thing
My friends Richard Gavin and Ian Rogers both tagged me simultaneously as part of their Next Big Thing posts (which you can learn more about by following those links). The gist of the idea is that you answer ten standard questions about your next/newest book, and then tag five other…

Some unforeseen logistical factors may have temporarily derailed (no pun intended) our Hitchcock marathon, but it’s still going ahead, just maybe a little slower than expected. However, we did manage to catch Strangers on a Train, starring Farley Granger (who we just saw in Rope), Robert Walker, and Alfred Hitchcock’s daughter Patricia!…

Look, I don’t even like James Bond movies. I watched a few of the old ones on TV when I was growing up, but I’ve mostly forgotten them, with the exception of a couple of the more recent Pierce Brosnan ones. Pretty much everything I know about James Bond I…

Continue reading →: The Lady Vanishes & Rope
As I mentioned a while back, up until about a month ago, I had managed to go my whole life without ever seeing a single actual Hitchcock film, as difficult as that is to believe. Prodded by watching Dial M for Murder, I resolved to devote November to rectifying that…

Continue reading →: Never Bet the Devil!
Missing Halloween by a single day, my debut collection Never Bet the Devil and Other Warnings just showed up on Amazon yesterday! We were expecting it in the next few days, but it jumped the gun a bit. Never Bet the Devil features ten of my stories, accumulated from the last four…
