Our Story
I was a bit of a strange kid, always more interested in the darker side of things and you could usually find me with my head stuck into a good book. Over the years I stole a lot of thrillers from my mams bookshelf and fostered an interest in all things spooky.
After being diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome when I was 15, I wondered if I could ever work a real job. I struggled to finish my GCSE's and eventually made it to college to do a media course. During that course, I was asked to come up with a business idea and that is where the first seeds of Blood Stone Books were planted.
Years later, I've graduated from Northumbria with a degree in English Literature and Creative Writing and a Creative Writing Masters and the idea of Blood Stone Books never left my mind. Now the time is right, I'm working hard to make that dream a reality.
We have big plans to expand the shop with more books online, a market stall, events and eventually an actual physical bookshop.
Follow along as we delve into the depths of the macabre and celebrate the beauty of darkness.
