Author: David-Watkins

David Watkins lives in Devon in the UK with his wife, two sons, ridiculous dog and psychotic cat. He has currently released four novels and a short story. Each book is well rated and reviewed on Amazon and beyond. His most recent release is The Exeter Incident, from D&T Publishing. "Great monsters and dynamic characters make this brutal, bloody, brilliant novel an essential read. I'll never see Exeter in the same light again!" - Tim Lebbon, The Last Storm (praise for The Exeter Incident) "...gut twisting scenes...” 4* Joe X Young, Gingernuts of Horror (The Devil's Inn) "..a damn entertaining read.." - DLS Reviews (The Devil's Inn) "Watkins writes with a real flow for tension." - Steve Stred, Kendall Reviews "Great horror! I couldn't put the book down" 4.5*, Pamela Kinney, Ismellsheep.com (The Original's Return) He hates referring to himself in the third person, but no-one else is going to write this for him. Dave can be found on Twitter so drop by and say hello @joshfishkins, where you'll find him ranting about horror, the British education system and Welsh rugby, but not usually at the same time.

I’m back…

I'm gearing up to releasing The Original's Rage soon, so thought it was about time I dusted off this website! Where have I been? Work has basically kicked my arse for the last year or so, and my writing took a massive hit. I was exhausted, burnt out and had no spare capacity, so I... Continue Reading →

October

So, October is over (ish) so here's a little look back at what I've been reading/watching/listening to/playing. Reading I've been on a major comics kick recently, restarted by re-reading The Sandman. This month, I've read four: The Boys Omnibus 1 (so very, very wrong, but so entertaining!), The Sandman Volume 3 (superb as always), 30... Continue Reading →

My month!

I'm far too sporadic a poster to keep a blog up to date, as there's always something else I should be doing. However, talking about what I'm reading, watching and listening to should be pretty easy to do, right? Right? Anyway, without any further ado: Reading I'm bouncing between two books at the moment -... Continue Reading →

The Exeter Incident – out now!

At some point, I'll share my entirely crap concept drawing of this. Don Noble deserves a medal for this cool cover! A book I came up with the concept of when I was in my twenties, The Exeter Incident is the book I have worked hardest on. I'm now 51, so this storyline has been... Continue Reading →

Once Upon A Fang In the West

By John Dover The pitch for this novella sounds like the start of a joke: a cowboy, a vampire and a ghost walk into a bar... This line should let you know what kind of a book you are in for. Dover has written a fast-paced, blood soaked western and filled it with vampires, ghosts... Continue Reading →

The Opening by Tim McWhorter

Nick Fallon knows failure all too well. His string of collapsed business ventures make for a resume from hell. This next one, however, will be different. The Chamberlain Theater (sic) itself is different. Nick has bought himself a theatre and renovated it into a state of the art 4-D experience, but there’s something wrong with... Continue Reading →
