Richard Wright

Welcome:

Welcome to the site. I'm a scribbler of horror and other dark fictions, and my novels and stories have been published in the UK and the US for the last fifteen years. I currently live in India, having been in Scotland for over a decade. For most of that time I've been writing one thing or another. Hopefully some of it has entertained you, or soon will. Let me know.

Kudos:

"In a genre where some of the most respected voices can't seem to get past vampires and serial killers, Wright doles out startlingly original ideas like he's throwing stones. More importantly, he's knocking us upside the head with them and making us think in a very enjoyable way." - Louis Maistros, Chiaroscuro

Tattered Review

Over at Bookgasm, you can find the first review of Tattered Souls, which contains my novelette ‘Other People’. Not bad, on balance, although I hadn’t noticed the sea of variously shaped penises in the book. To my mind, this is not a bad thing, and a fine illustration of the many and various ways that the size and shape of a penis can be discussed. English students, take note.

And when you’re done reading the review, why not find out whether you agree with it or not by reading the actual book?

Hello Rick,
I used to work beside you in Borders bookshop, Glasgow, where you told me you had written a novel called “Cuckoo”. I read it recently, enjoyed it, and intend to read more of your work. It’s good to know some of my erstwhile colleagues are published authors. Keep up the good work!

Blimey – took you long enough

Seriously, thanks for letting me know, and taking the time to try it. Hope you stick around. Borders, eh? Good grief, that’s been a while!
