Chaz Brenchley

Chaz Brenchley (born 4 January 1959 in Oxford) is a British writer of novels and short stories, associated with the genres of horror, crime and fantasy. Some of his work has been published under the pseudonyms of Ben Macallan and Daniel Fox. Chaz also serves as one of three hosts, with Jeannie Warner and John Schmidt, of the podcast Writers Drinking Coffee.

Winner of the British Fantasy Society's August Derleth Award in 1998 for ''Light Errant'' (and not, as often stated, the ''Outremer'' series), he has also published three books for children and more than 500 short stories in various genres. His time as Crimewriter-in-Residence at the St Peter's Riverside Sculpture Project in Sunderland resulted in the collection ''Blood Waters''. Brenchley has also been writer in residence at the University of Northumbria.

Charles de Lint praised ''Dispossession'' as "one of those increasingly rare books that remind you just how satisfying fiction can be." Provided by Wikipedia
