Doug in Faro YT in 2007
Douglas E Wright is a Dark Suspense writer who left Brockville Ontario and now calls Victoria BC home. Working for Canada Post for close to thirty years, he was able to travel and live in various parts of Canada, from Iqaluit Nunavut to Springdale Newfoundland to Whitehorse Yukon. From these travels he was able to pick up a lot of the local lore and has created dark stories with a literary bend from the scenery and people he has met and experienced.
Douglas writes horror, supernatural horror, dark fantasy with a literary bend. His short stories have been published in: Britain’s Horror Express, HUB and Thirteen Magazine: USA’s Black Ink Horror Magazine, Escaping Elsewhere and Mount Zion Press. He also has stories in the anthologies ‘Raw Meat’ by CWW Press and ‘Enter the Realm’ by Larry Sells. His hardback Romantic Suspense novella ‘BOOGALOOS’, along with his chapbook ‘SWEET THINGS’ was published by Sideshow Press and sold out in four days in late 2009.
His list of influences are extensive. He likes styles of Nancy Kilpatrick to Ray Bradbury, from David Morrell to Kafka and from Joe Hill to Charles Dickens. The films he enjoys are just as diverse. He likes movies and their directors such as Tim Burton’s ‘Corpse Bride’ to Frank Capra’s ‘It’s a Wonderful Life.’
Douglas also spends a great deal of time working and tinkering on his website. He likes horror conferences, collecting advanced horror movie posters and signed horror books as well as Aurora horror models.
