About Me

Hello.

This MySpace page is here to promote the works of the horror writer Steve Harris. Basingstoke's most gruesome export.

Before I continue I need to stress that I am NOT Steve, but Mr Harris does fully support this Site.

Steve wrote several books in the 90's, published by Headline and Gollancz and then in the late 90's something horrible happened. The publishing industry suddenly decided that horror was no longer a viable genre and sacked a number of writers.

Steve was sitting on two finished novels when this happened.

The Switch and Miami five fifteen.

He is still sitting on them.
I mentioned promotion earlier didn't I. Well Steve has the first three chapter of 'The Switch' available on his website. Click here to go there.
