Book birthday! My folk-horror collection COME SING FOR THE HARROWING is out today from @clashbooks.bsky.social.
“Sinister and deeply affecting, Coxon’s remarkable collection is too compelling, too inventive to miss.”
—Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke

Another great review of COME SING FOR THE HARROWING, released by @clashbooks.bsky.social next week.
"Coxon is a master of turning the mundane on its head, often via family situations, before seamlessly filtering in his own unique brand of darkness."

It's only a week till @clashbooks.bsky.social release COME SING FOR THE HARROWING, and I'll be going on a virtual tour to celebrate the release. From publication day (21st), I'll be discussing the book, folk-horror as a genre, and even perform a reading of one of the stories. Come join the choir.
I have a chapbook coming! Salo Press are launching their new imprint Infidelities, and my story 'Never Land' is among the first wave. It's a strange recollection of a number of things that actually happened to me, peppered with lies and soiled by confusion. What fun!

The magic of Naming. The theme of restoring equilibrium to a world that patriarchy has torn from its natural cycle of birth and death...
Last year I had a chance to discuss some thoughts on Earthsea's magic in Writing the Magic edited by @dancoxon.bsky.social.
It's rather spooky, isn't it... completely unplanned, but clearly I suit burnt orange.
Updated 2026 releases bingo card, including the novella Where Once He Stood (released 28th May, Black Shuck Books). What's next?

It’s terrific! Go, preorder, read!
“A tender and affecting tale of parental grief that recalls Alan Garner’s strange fables and is ever more plausible the further it strays into fantastical territory.” - Tim Major
"Where Once He Stood moves from a gripping premise to one frightening reveal after another, and at its heart there's a dark mystery that demands to be solved. I raced through it." - Aliya Whiteley
"This skilful dark fantasy novella put me in mind of du Maurier's Don't Look Now and Clarke's Piranesi. Unnerving and sometimes disturbing, it is nevertheless at heart a story about the enduring nature of love." - @unamccormack.bsky.social
So the cat's out... I have a novella coming in May from Black Shuck Books, WHERE ONCE HE STOOD. Dark magic, disappearing houses - and a vanished child.
Endorsements and pre-orders in the thread below!
Thank you!

4.5/5⭐
unsettling collection of shorts from this (new to me) author.... a collection of horror tales that has a little bit of everything. Not a bad one in the bunch... Off to get more of his books!
