World Fantasy Convention - October 2025

World Fantasy Convention 2025 – What a Weekend!

Yes, it’s been 2 weeks since that incredible few days at the World Fantasy Convention in Brighton, but I’m still buzzing!

Our Audio Panel went brilliantly – a great turnout and such an engaged audience. The whole weekend was amazing: I met two of my literary idols, Adrian Tchaikovsky and Peter F. Hamilton, who were both wonderfully generous and welcoming to a newcomer like me.

I also caught up with my good friend Michael R. Miller over a well-earned beer to talk shop (and marketing, of course). On top of that, I gave a five-minute reading from Chapter 1 of Dark Rising during the open-mic session and received some truly lovely feedback.

The people, the panels, and the sheer passion for storytelling made it a weekend I’ll never forget. See a couple of pictures below!
