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

Author Review – “An anthology of old school tales containing stories which are, by turns, spooky, gripping, insightful, pulpish, and just downright fun. A first offering from Shroud Publishing that will hopefully be followed by plenty more in the same vein.”

Author Review – “Beneath the Surface is loaded with powerful tales from powerful voices. From Scott William Carter’s atmospheric “Stone Creek Station” to Angeline Hawkes’s tale of cursed bones, to Richard Wright’s thoughtful “Secrets Never Told,” you will likely feel…uncomfortable…and so much happier for it.”

- Stephen Mark Rainey,author of Blue Devil Island and The Lebo Coven.

Review – “A must for any serious horror fan, if anything as a template on how the genre can still be completely original in its storytelling. If you can find a collection like this anywhere else please let me know immediately.”

- Gregory L. Hall, Choate Road, 2008
