Forget relaxing—this collection of dark speculative fiction is a masterclass in the unsettling. Mark Hodgetts crafts complex, spellbinding worlds that hook you from the first sentence and refuse to let go until the final page.
With prose so sharp it rivals the likes of Stephen King, Hodgetts achieves the impossible: delivering gripping, highly original stories that resonate in just a few short paragraphs. Dark Weird Stuff is an enthralling journey into the creative unknown and an absolute essential for your fiction shelf.
I live in Melbourne, Australia, having survived and escaped the life of a Bank Manager.
Much of what I write has elements of horror, dark fantasy or what could be described as pessimistic science fiction. I don’t set out to include these elements. They just sneak their way in. The story just comes out. Quite often it takes me to places that cause me to ask, where on earth did that come from?
I don't know where it comes from. It just comes out.
I like writing it and I hope you enjoy reading or listening to it. View all by Mark Hodgetts
