Colm lives in a noisy flat with last year's Halloween decs still dotted around the place. He is mad on all kinds of horror, be it splatterfests, ghost stories, or unsettling psychological terrors. His writing desk is his phone, and he will write like mad at every chance he gets, fitting it around fixing marble and granite on rufty tufty building sites. While Colm’s major interest is books, he’s also written short films screened at Raindance, characters and plot maps for Secret Cinema, and occasionally rewrites emails for other builders onsite when someone's having a barney and wants to cut back on the bad language. As well as teen / YA horrors, Colm has also written middle grade adventures, and a grown up book made in bad taste.
