Anthony Burns was born in 1979, and is the
son of
Welsh poet and novelist Sheenagh Pugh. He read English Literature at
the University of Leeds, and in
2004 completed his PhD on
Gothic literature and the morbid, vampire-obsessed Romantic poet P B
Shelley,
probably best known these days as the blond character with very few
lines in
“Bride of Frankenstein”. He has also worked as an alternative model,
teaching
English in Beijing,
and writing advertising copy for a toyshop. His literary and
not-so-literary
influences include C S Lewis, Tolkien, Terry Pratchett, H P Lovecraft,
Bram
Stoker, and any mythology that happens to take his liking, but
especially Norse
and Aztec.
