'''Fiona Glass''' When she isn't being a pane in the glass, Fiona writes darkly humorous fiction, mostly involving gay characters and almost always with a twist in the tail. Her work has been published in anthologies and magazines (both print and electronic), most recently with Riptide Publishing, Byker Books, Pill Hill Press, Mslexia, The Pygmy Giant, and QueeredFiction. Her second novel, 'Gleams of a Remoter World', a ghost story set on the wild west coast of Ireland, has just been published by Riptide.

A pinch of history, a swirl of mystery, a cupful of romance... Most of Fiona's books involve history, the paranormal and romance in varying (and varyingly weird!) combinations. They include gay ghostly romances December Roses, Trench Warfare, and Ghosts Galore, and gay vampire romance Echoes of Blood.

Fiona lives in a slate cottage within stone-throwing distance (never a good idea in Glass houses...) of England's largest lake. She enjoys history, gardening and photography, and rarely has her nose far from the pages of a book - or a cup of tea.
