I am Richard V. Hirst. I am an award-winning writer and editor. Hello.
Books I've written or edited include Waiting for the Gift, Writing the Uncanny, Plunge Hill, We Were Strangers, The Night Visitors and Bus Station Unbound.
I'm interested in short stories, ghost stories, stories set in winter and sad stories about lonely British people quietly having a terrible time.
My writing has appeared in numerous publications and anthologies including The Guardian, Time Out, and The Big Issue. Awards I've won include the Manchester Fiction Prize, the British Fantasy Awards and the Saboteur Awards.
I also work on programming, fundraising and communications for a number of arts charities in the North West.
