In addition to his major works, Morris has published, as chapbooks, the novellas The Dogs (for Barrington Stoke, an imprint for 'reluctant readers') and The Uglimen. Before Toady, he had written a novel called The Winter Tree, which was rejected by publishers, but allowed him to gain him some familiarity with them. His first novel, Toady, was published in 1989 (re-titled The Horror Club, and its text shortened by one-third for the US market) and several further books followed: Stitch, The Immaculate, The Secret of Anatomy, Mr Bad Face, Longbarrow, Genesis and Nowhere Near an Angel. ![]() Morris began his writing career in 1988 as part of the (now defunct) Enterprise Allowance Scheme, which was at that time paying claimants £30 a week to be self-employed. He currently lives in Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, in a 200-year-old stone house, with his wife, the artist Nel Whatmore. ![]() Mark Morris (born 15 June 1963) is an English author known for his series of horror novels, although he has also written several novels based on the BBC Television series Doctor Who.
