Biography

Russell runs the award-winning Tartarus Press with Rosalie Parker, and for many years compiled the Guide to First Edition Prices.[6] As an author he has had four collections of short stories, three novellas and one novel published. His story "Loup-garou" was chosen for Ellen Datlow’s The Best Horror of the Year. "In Hiding" was nominated for the 2010 World Fantasy Award,[7] and "The Beautiful Room" for the 2011 British Fantasy Award.[8] Michael Dirda has described Russell as "...among the leading practitioners of classic supernatural fiction".[9]

His novella, Bloody Baudelaire, has been filmed by 3:1 Cinema with the new title Backgammon and was released 2016.[10]

He contributes artwork to Tartarus Press titles, and a selection of his art was on display at the Link Gallery, Dean Clough, Halifax, 2010/11.

Russell is also a songwriter, having previously composed songs released by The Bollweevils.[11] His first solo CD, Ghosts,[12] was released by Klanggalerie in February 2012. The accompanying video presentation was premiered in Vienna in March 2012,[13] and was subsequently shown at Dean Clough Galleries October 2012.[14] Dean Clough Galleries presented The Romance of Shortwave Radio Numbers Stations as a video installation in 2018.[15]

Russell was the co-creator of C.W. Blubberhouse with Mark Valentine.
