Called ‘a writer of considerable energy’ in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, John Travis is the author of six books – two short story collections, Mostly Monochrome Stories and Gaseous Clay and Other Ambivalent Tales; two novellas Greenbeard and Eloquent Years of Silence; and two previous Benji Spriteman novels, The Terror and the Tortoiseshell and The Designated Coconut, the former attracting the attention of several Hollywood film companies. His many short stories and novellas have been published in anthologies and journals such as Terror Tales of Northwest England, Nemonymous, British Invasion and in both volumes of The Humdrumming Books of Horror Stories, his story from the second volume, ‘The Tobacconist’s Concession’ appearing on the 2009 shortlist for a British Fantasy Award. He’s also had his work praised by TED Klein and David Renwick, and had an invisible poem read out on Radio 1 by John Hegley. Writing what he can, when he can, if by some miracle he ever did make any money from his stories about talking animals and various haunted objects and people, he’d like to move to the country or the coast, possibly Scarborough, and live in a detached house surrounded by books, films and musical instruments.
