John Skipp

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Skipp is a bestselling author and screenwriter whose eleven books have sold millions of copies and are reprinted in nine languages. His early works (co-written with Craig Spector) were considered seminal to the "splatterpunk" style of modern horror literature; Skipp split with Spector in 1993 to begin his successful solo career. Always the Renaissance man and collaborator, Skipp is currently involved in several film projects, functioning as writer, director, and producer. Leisure Press is releasing his novel The Long Last Call, along with his novella, Conscience, together in September 2007. This marks Skipp's long-awaited return to the field, after many years devoted to musical endeavors, and more.

He editied the 2006 anthology Mondo Zombie (published by Cemetery Dance Publications) which won the Bram Stoker Award for Best Anthology. The collection included his short story "God Save The Queen" which was co-written by Marc Levinthal.
