KAREN RUNGE.
13/6/2016
 Karen Runge is a writer based in South Africa. She writes the kind of stories that leave a mark, long after you have finished reading them. Karen first came to my attention through the Grey Matter Press anthology ‘Deaths Realm’. In collaboration with ‘Suspended in Dusk’ Editor Simon Dewar, they created a tale of sexy horror that I thought was a real stand out inside an already excellent anthology. Fast forward a little and Karen popped up again in another anthology from the excellent Grey Matter Press. This time it was a story in the ‘Savage Beasts’ anthology. For me it was the best story in there, and once again this was a high quality collection of dark fiction.
I heard a little rumour that Karen was working on a short story collection to be released this year. To say I was eager to get my hands on a copy is an understatement. ‘Seven Sins’, released by Concorde Press is the debut collection from this incredibly talented writer and is readily available right now! With blurbs by Stephen Graham Jones and Paul Tremblay you know that this will be something special. Also later this year, Karen will be releasing her debut novel through Grey Matter Press. ROBODOC THE INTERROGATION

 Following their incredible success with 'Leviathan: The story of Hellraiser and Hellbound: Hellraiser 2'' and 'You're so cool, Brewster! The Story of Fright Night!', documentary film-makers Dead Mouse Productions Ltd and Cult Screenings UK Ltd have turned their attention to one of the classics of the 80's (and Gingernuts regular Kit Power's favourite movie of all time) - the mighty Robocop. With the Kickstarter already funded and the entering its final week, and exciting new stretch goals announced, we got to chat with Gary Smart, Chris Griffiths and Eastwood Allen about how you go about making the definitive documentary about one of cinemas most beloved movies...
 PURCHASE FALLING OVER Having recently finished and thoroughly enjoyed James Everington’s volume Falling Over, and in anticipation of the release of his novella Trying To Be So Quiet, we sat down to chat with the author for an in-depth conversation about the writing of the short story collection. |
