Derivation of 'Weirdmonger' word

posted Friday, 30 November 2007

 

"Weirdmonger"

There is some doubt who in my family invented this word in the Eighties: I reckon it was me; it was certainly me who first used it in public: but my son and daughter both claim speaking it first. I used to call my daughter 'Daughtmonger'... and I wrote Weird stories... The rest is History.

The 'Weirdmonger' stories first appeared in Chris Reed's Back Brain Recluse magazine in 1988. The paperback book of my selected stories published by Prime in 2003 was called WEIRDMONGER: The Nemonicon: Synchronised Shards of Random Truth & Fiction.
