Welcome

WELCOME TO MY WORLDS

I don’t write,
I craft,
I imitate,
I dream,
And then I etch it all using words as my paint in the hopes that someone will understand my illusions

WHO I AM

I’m Stephen Coghlan, a writer of speculative fiction who inhabits a small area just outside of the great, and oft-frozen, national capital region of Canada. I love telling stories and creating worlds. Within this website is a selection of works and information that I invite you to peruse at your leisure.

Please feel free to use the menu bar to find your way around.

Sincerely

Stephen M. Coghlan

WHAT’S NEW(S)

NEW RELEASES

Mollusk Among Man is a dystopian cyberpunk penal protest that I cannot claim 100% credit for.

Produced by Dark Brew press, Mollusk Among Man tells the story of Roca, a freshly-paroled brain secured inside a government-issued robotic shell, as he fights to maintain his freedom, clear his past, and break free from the cycle of recidivism before he finds himself forever stuck in the ‘legal’ system his country has become.

The story was written after interviewing actual convicts and ex-convicts of the North American legal systems, and many of the stories are true events, with sci-fi embellishments. Therefore, I cannot take full writing credit.

Any Net Profits from sales of Mollusk Among Man will therefore be donated to charities that aid the Queer and Bipoc communities

IN SUBMISSION

I am continuing to write Novels, novellas, and short stories when invited. At present I have several completed stories that are in submission to houses and agents, because I do not yet have the cojones to self-publish.

In addition, GENMOS and NOBILIS have been fully returned to me, so I am working on re-releasing both series along with future titles.

Nobilis Book 2 is completed, and is just stuck in editing Hell.
