Other Writing

Wilkins Pulp Editions began with a simple idea.

Stories don't have to be enormous to stay with you.

They don't need eight hundred pages, six sequels and a map in the front.

Sometimes a story just needs a character in trouble, a bad decision, a question that won't go away...

and enough pages to see what happens.

That's what Wilkins Pulp Editions are.

Short, complete works of fiction built around psychological suspense, crime, mystery, strange circumstances and ordinary people who find themselves...

Most people believe they would stop.

They imagine a clear moment where something no longer makes sense, where doubt takes over and the decision becomes obvious.

It incorporated the experiences and ideas I had gathered over the years, as well as some of the research and themes I have used in two of my non-fiction books. Plus, a healthy dose of cynicism about the whole fame and Hollywood projection.

The two non-fiction books are “The Age of Influence”. Just published on Amazon and available on this...
