He is senior film writer at Radio Times, writer at Total Film, SFX and Den of Geek, and the co-host of movie podcast Torn Stubs. He has been on set with Kermit the Frog (and Miss Piggy), devoured breakfast with zombies on The Walking Dead, and sat on the Iron Throne on the Dublin set of Game of Thrones.

Josh lives with his cat Penny and dreams of one day convincing Sigourney Weaver to yell “Goddammit!” at him.

YouTube interview with Amy McCaw!

Behold! It's my first ever interview about THE SHADOW GLASS! And my first ever interview on YouTube!

The lovely Amy McCaw (author of spectacular 90s horror Mina and the Undead) invited me on to her channel to talk 80s goodness and my publishing journey so far, plus get the scoop on The Shadow Glass. We had a hoot geeking out over NeverEnding Story, Buffy, and just what makes a book YA or adult. Che Read more of this blog post »

Sadie Hartmann
Sadie Hartmann is on page 40 of 397 of The Shadow Glass: I was browsing available horror ebooks on my library app so I could fill up my kindle before vacation. I saw this book and read a few words, "For fans of Jim Henson, Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, The Neverending Story"
What the hell?
This is me. Those movies are my life.
Well now I'm reading it and the main character's name is "Jack" (Legend) and a character was named "Toby" (Labyrinth) I'm dying.

Sadie Hartmann shared a note and highlight from
The Shadow Glass by Josh Winning
Between Bavmorda, the Nothing and Frank Langella’s sublime Skeletor, the ’80s were the golden age of Hollywood villainy. This was the era when so-called ‘kids’ films made it their mission to scare the living shit out of you. If you weren’t having nightmares, they weren’t doing it right.
Bavmorda from Willow terrified me!
