Hello. I’m Johnny Compton, author (primarily of horror stories), HWA Member, Texan, tall person, and whiskey dilettante.
My debut novel The Spite House is available NOW for Pre-order.
For promotional purposes, here is my official, customarily third-person short bio:
Johnny Compton (he/him) is a San Antonio based author whose short stories have appeared in several publications since 2006, including Pseudopod, Strange Horizons and The No Sleep Podcast. His fascination with frightening fiction started when his kindergarten teacher played a record of the classic ghost story “The Golden Arm” for her class. The Spite House is his debut novel through Tor Nightfire.
My fiction has appeared in Strange Horizons, The No Sleep Podcast, Pseudopod, On the Premises and more.
I am also creator and host of the podcast Healthy Fears, available on Apple Podcasts / iTunes, Spotify and most other podcasting platforms.
