Edmund de Wight

What do I write:

Gritty, high-octane fiction with a touch of terror and daring heroes and heroines! I write stories that can be classified as either Horror, Science Fiction, Urban Fantasy, or Thriller depending on the tale.

Books to get you started:

• For short fiction, try - Flashes of Darkness series.
• Science Fiction action - Spacefarer: The Malbane Chronicles
• Gritty Urban Fantasy - The Light Within - Irin Knight series.
• Apocalyptic Horror - Hell Ascendant series

Or, try one of my short stories for a quick peek inside worlds of zombies, outer space adventure, alternate realities, or whatever bubbles up from my subconscious.

About me:

I can be found wandering my hometown of Las Vegas and the surrounding areas in search of fun, excitement, and new story material.

It's quite natural that I moved here as some say I was found wandering the desert as a baby, while others say my mother won me playing craps. There are those who say that aliens were spotted near Vegas on the night I was brought into the world. Draw your own conclusions.

All I know is that I was born there, moved all over the world for most of my life, and now has been drawn back to the land of my birth.

I have always had a thirst to learn new things. I've pursued such diverse careers as a carnival barker, military intelligence, a computer technician, bartender, and owner of a small retail business.

I spend my time reading, writing, testing software for a local business, camping, and learning new skills at art. Linocarving is my latest passion. I take simple flooring linoleum and draw a design on it and then carve the design into the surface with super sharp tools. This can be printed onto paper, wood, leather - whatever OR just leave it as a carved piece of art. The carving itself is very relaxing and the result is a unique art item.
