Richard E. Rock

Richard E. Rock is a south Wales-based author of the frightening and fantastical.

He was inspired to become a novelist after experiencing a series of particularly ferocious nightmares. After waking up and realising he could turn these into horrible but compelling stories, he started deliberately inducing them.

His debut horror novel DEEP LEVEL was published in 2020 to overwhelmingly positive reviews. His latest novel FRENZY ISLAND was published by Cranthorpe Millner in 2022 and is out now.

He has over thirteen years experience as a commercial scriptwriter in the radio industry and has in the past been a frequent contributor to Viz Comic and the satirical news website newsthump.com.

He lives with his girlfriend and their cat and his interests include Norwegian Black Metal, Russian prison literature and Scooby Doo.
