About Me |
|
My novels include Forge of the Mind Slayers, Darkness Wakes, Pandora Drive, The Thieves of Blood, the Godfire duology, Like Death, and A Nightmare on Elm Street: Protege. I've published close to eighty short stories, some of them collected in All Too Surreal. My articles on writing have appeared in Writer’s Digest, Writers’ Journal, and other publications. I teach creative writing at Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio. Visit me on the web at http://www.timwaggoner.com “A fast-paced, over-the-top, blood-and-guts thriller . . . for those who like their horror bloody, their heroes tarnished and their action just this side of unbelievable.” PUBLISHERS WEEKLY “Tim Waggoner is a magnificent horror writer who will be appreciated by readers who like Douglas Clegg and Bentley Little.” ALTERNATIVE WORLDS “Tim Waggoner is well on his way to being proclaimed horror fiction’s leading surrealist. . . His descriptive powers lend a cinematic quality to his prose that plays out spectacularly in the mind’s eye.” CEMETERY DANCE “An insane, twisted, exciting, impossible-to-put-down book.” HORROR FICTION REVIEW “Waggoner is swiftly gaining a reputation as one of the best working in the horror field today.” HORROR WORLD “Tim Waggoner writes with a passion and imagination that demand your attention.” HORROR WORLD “Waggoner's Thieves of Blood is a pedal-to-the-metal thrill ride of a novel featuring some of the coolest fantasy characters to come along in years. Highly recommended.” BARNES AND NOBLE BOOK REVIEW Waggoner “takes us to the abyss, and jumps right in, skinnydipping gleefully in the toxic waste of a thousand wet-dream-nightmares.” CD WEEKLY “Refreshingly different from most of what’s being published in the horror genre these days.” CEMETERY DANCE..
