David E. Gates has published a number of books and short-stories.

He previously won the SILVER prize in the AuthorsDB 2016 Cover Contest for The Ghost of Clothes and won best HORROR Novel Logline for 2016 for The Roots of Evil.

He has previously won first prize (Gold) for The Roots of Evil and third prize (Bronze) for Access Denied in the 2015 AuthorsDB Cover Contest, and has made a film about the battlefield memorials in Ypres, Belgium called Ypres The Battlefield Tours (available at www.shelleyshow.co.uk).

David has previously written film reviews for Starburst and Samhain magazines and interviewed the likes of Clive Barker, Terry Pratchett, James Herbert and many others. He has also written a number of short stories, a full-length motion picture screenplay, the screenplay to a short film and in his spare time hosts a rock radio show.

With 100% positive reviews Access Denied is, as one reader put it, "A well told, quite extraordinary true story that stays with you. A must read for both men and women alike."

Access Denied is available in Audiobook, Kindle and Paperback formats.

An original short-story, a branch "off" of The Roots of Evil trilogy, called The Ghost of Clothes is available from online bookstores and at www.davidegates.com.
