What passes for the website of Patrick Shawn Bagley, writer of crime fiction, horror and good ol' weird shit.
"You know what? The bastard blows me out of the water. This guy writes Maine like Ardai writes New York. If you're not reading him, you don't know what you're missing." --Chris F. Holm, author of "The Collector" series, The Killing Kind, and Red Right Hand.
"A refreshingly new voice in noir." --Ed Kurtz, author of Nothing You Can Do and The Rib From Which I Remake the World.
"A glorious boilermaker of noir and East Coast gothic. The action is taut as a sprung snare and Bagley tightens the screws with every page." -- Laird Barron, author of Swift to Chase and Blood Standard.

Messing with Finland
A Finnish translation of "One More Mess" will appear in an upcoming issue of Juri Nummelin's magazine Ässä. It's my first publication in a foreign language, so I'm excited. Many thanks to Juri and Keith Rawson.
Patrick Shawn Bagley'sstories of rural mayhem have appeared in Crimespree, Spinetingler, Thrilling Detective, The Iconoclast and the Bleak House Books anthology Uncage Me (edited by Jen Jordan). He was a founding editor of The Lineup: Poems on Crime, and has an MFA from the University of Southern Maine/Stonecoast. Bagley lives and writes on a dead-end dirt road in a one-stoplight town.
Down and Out Bookswill reissue Bagley's crime novel, Bitter Water Blues, in paperback and e-book on March 19, 2018.
Bagley works at a community supports program for adults with cognitive disabilities. He is currently working on a horror novel and a new crime novel.

And thank you for writing such a great story! Now shouldn't you be writing!
He's also publishing my story and Sandra Scoppettone's. Those paragraphs were worth wrestling with.
Damn, that's cool!
Congratulations,Patrick.
Very cool. Congratulations. I'd say I hope to read it, but I have enough problems with English.
Good on yer. Juri's doing my 'In The Dog Houe' too!
