Horror writer and journalist
Philip Nutman died yesterday. Read a wonderful memoir of him by
Fangoria editor Tony Timpone
here. I really enjoyed the short stories he wrote in the early '90s, published in the anthologies
Book of the Dead,
Splatterpunks,and
Borderlands 2. He also wrote the screenplay of
Jack Ketchum's
The Girl Next Door, and was one of
Clive Barker's earliest champions. I've had his only novel
Wet Work (1993) for years but it remains unread. Rest well, brother...

Wet Work is a slick little novel. It expands on his short story in Book Of The Dead.
Sad to hear, but you gotta get on reading Wet Work. It's one of a kind.
What a coincidence. The day after his death, I stumbled across Wet Work in a used bookstore. Providence!
