About the Author

Tim Mendees is a horror writer from Macclesfield in the North-West of England that specialises in cosmic horror and weird fiction. A lifelong fan of classic weird tales, Tim set out to bring the pulp horror of yesteryear into the 21st Century and give it a distinctly British flavour. His work has been described as the love-child of H.P. Lovecraft and P.G. Wodehouse and is often peppered with a wry sense of humour that acts as a counterpoint to the unnerving, and often disturbing, narratives.
Since breaking onto the scene in December 2019, Tim has had over seventy published stories in anthologies and magazines with publishers all over the world including Eerie River Publishing, HellBound Books, Lovecraftiana Magazine, and Madness Heart Press. His critically acclaimed debut novella, Burning Reflection (Mannison Press,) is currently available on Amazon. He is also the project leader and twisted mastermind behind the Jack The Ripper and Cthulhu Mythos mashup anthology, 13 Victims (Black Hare Press.) His novelette, Carpe Detritus (Black Hare Press,) releases on May 15th.
This year will see Tim release several stand-alone books, including the short story collection, The Pseudopod That Rocks The Cradle (Mannison Press,) and the novellas, Spiffing (Red Cape Publishing) and The Creeping Void (Eerie River Publishing.)
When he is not arguing with the spellchecker, Tim is a goth DJ, crustacean and cephalopod enthusiast, and the presenter of a popular web series of live video readings of his material and interviews with fellow authors. He currently lives in Brighton & Hove with his pet crab, Gerald, and an army of stuffed octopods.
