Chris Lynch: Writer

I write books for children and adults, most recently working on Doctor Who spin-off books in the extended Haisman universe for Candy Jar Publishing. Over the past few years, I have written a number of books, novellas, and short stories for Candy Jar and always have more in the pipeline. My children’s book, “Curse of the Mirror Clowns“, was shortlisted for a Scribe Award in 2019.

My short stories have been published in a wide range of magazines and online journals. Many of these are new also available here on my website and, when time permits, I enjoy writing short stories and flash fiction to share here.

When I’m not writing novels and short stories, I can be found working on screen plays for The Black Room or comic books for Monkeys with Machineguns.

I’m always interested in discussing new projects, if you’d like to work with me then please reach out through my contact form.

How Attack of the Quarks Came to Be

January 25, 2022 chris 0

I wrote “The Arcade of Doom” for the Lethbridge-Stewart Lineage collection and it was only supposed to be a throw-away, fun story involving Lucy, Hobo, and the creepily squeaky-voiced Quarks. Set in an arcade that was an […]

Attack of the Quarks

The key to identifying a great arcade was not the lights, Hobo knew. People always thought about the lights, but it wasn’t the lights. It wasn’t even the sounds. The key to identifying a great […]

The Gray Lady of Martyr’s House

This is a Christmas story. It’s also a ghost story, as all good Christmas stories should be. It has a spooky old house, a creepy housekeeper, a library with a very unusual selection of books, […]

The Doctor is Us and We Are The Doctor

December 30, 2021 chris 0

New #doctorwho theory… It seems more or less canonical that when The Doctor regenerates, they choose a face from their own past. Someone they’ve seen before. But where does the personality come from? Why are they grumpy, […]
