Martin Roberts

Nominated for a BBC Award at the 17th Birmingham International Film and Television Festival in 2001, 'Paint' (director/editor) was followed by the zero budget documentary Assembly of Rogues and anthology of the same name and published by Rainfall Books with John B. Ford. 'Rogues' was my attempt to capture the state of publishing for British Horror writers as we entered the new millennium.

An essay about Peter Jackson's Brain Dead (Dead Alive) appeared in Cinema Macabre from PS Publishing, edited by Mark Morris.

Recently, I have turned my attentions towards writing short fiction with stories beginning to see publication, starting with The 13 Ghosts of Christmas edited by Simon Marshall-Jones and published by Spectral Press. Others have followed... consider yourselves warned.

I was involved with the British Fantasy Society for roughly ten years. Roles have included Publicity Co-ordinator, Events, and Stockholder.

Other credits include the Short Film Showcase at FantasyCon, and Lint:The Movie based on the novel by Steve Aylett.

'I wasn't going to publish anything for a few days as I am currently moving, but this story is too good and I decided to put it up right away. '

Dustin Reade, Editor of The Mustache Factor on Pretzel Fish

'...especially notable because Martin Roberts read a story which I thought was truly outstanding. It was untitled and I'm still not sure what it was about but some of the ideas and imagery was terrific.'

Rod Rees, Author of The Demi-Monde on 'Untitled'

I like the attitude you put into your work. Alan M Clark on 'Citizen Shit'
