ALAN MEREDITH

Hi! I’m Alan Meredith, CFA Spooky Shorts Winner 2024! I like to write books where you are never quite sure whether the events of the story are actually happening, or whether they are the main character’s delusion. Mark Twain did say, “Write what you know.” Shimmer, Midas and my latest book Valhalla, fall into this self-styled genre I’m titling ‘Delusional Fantasy’. Sometimes I slip into my first love, Horror. Lucas, Father’s Day and Self Defence all fall into this well-established genre.

​

I grew up in the 80's which influences my writing.  My love of all things 80's is shared with fellow author and musician Guy Gardner.  The love is so strong that Guy and I regularly travel back in time to the 80's in my flux capacitor mod'ed VW Polo to review the latest VHS releases on my Youtube Channel VHS Film Club.

On the rare occasions we are more serious then you can learn more about us and how we write in the Uncovered Series also on YouTube.  Like the Naked Chef, it's a metaphor and we are both fully dressed for Uncovered.  See VHS Film Club for actual naked writers.
