Welcome to the internet home of American fantasist, author, and general dork Craig Wolf. Wipe your feet, put out that nasty cigarette, and make yourself at home. Or don't. Your call.

Who the hell is this guy, anyway?
Craig Wolf (hereafter referred to as me, I, or dumbass) is the author of a nifty collection of short stories called PRESSURE POINTS, and a skullbanger of a horror novel called TRESPASS. Your collection is emptier without these fine works. Take my word on this.

 

Both of these amazing books are available at the ever terrific Shocklines.



All The News That's Fit To Post (And Some That Ain't)

Down In The Cellar has published "A Million Halloweens Are Loose In Your Head" in their latest issue, along with a couple of other goodies, including a terrific bit of nastiness from my good pal William Campbell. All content is totally free, so head on over for some cheap entertainment. And if you like what read, let the editor, Jeff Cercone, know. He's a true prince, and DitC is a nifty little e-zine.

I am a confirmed guest at FenCon IV in Dallas September 21-23. Sounds like a good time be had by all, and if you happen to be there, come by and say hi.

I am also a confirmed guest for TrickorTreat Con in Oklahoma City October 6th and 7th, where we will celebrate all things horror. I highly look forward to this new con, and encourage anyone within reasonable traveling distance to come see what it's all about. Hell, even unreasonable traveling distance. I think it'll be a bloody good time. Very bloody.

I have a new story out in the splendid British magazine Farthing, issue number 5, called "Seeing Is." I think it's a crowd pleaser. Eamon Murphy of SFCrowsnest.com wrote "Among the conventional, I particularly liked 'Seeing Is' by Craig Wolf. A fantasy about a nine year-old boy who encounters a talking evil eye while walking to the swimming pool one day. The eye knows everyone's secrets and is happy to divulge them to young Jody. This is the kind of story Stephen King might write on one of his better days."  One doesn't hear that every day.

My nasty little flash story "Fault Lines" has been reprinted in Book of Shadows, Volume One, edited by Angela Challis, which compiles the first issues of the now-late Shadowed Realms.  This one collects Poppy Z. Brite, Stephen Dedman, Terry Dowling, Greg Beatty, and Kurt Newton, among others.  I highly recommend this one.  Of course I do.

Last fall, I had a short-short called "One Afternoon, A Fire" published by Flash Me.  Happily enough, it's still available, for gratis.  Of this story, I will only note that it's kind of a sweet one, and that I don't think I've had my last dealings with the very odd company called Sparks, Inc.
