Doug Goodman

Hi! My name is Doug Goodman. I live in Austin. While my writing has always shifted lanes between horror, science fiction, and dark fantasy, I think of myself more an animal writer. It doesn't matter if the animals I write about are zombie-hunting dogs, dinosaurs, or giant kaiju monsters, that's where I like to be. I'm interested in that area where animals and humans intersect. I'm especially curious about the mind meld that happens with working animals. For over ten years I was a search and rescue volunteer and a canine handler. These experiences provided my point of view for examining human nature. 

I am the proud father of two of the best people you will ever meet and a very lucky husband. Obviously, there are animals in my household, though not as many as once lived here. Thank you for stopping by, and please check out one of my books. (They are all available from Amazon as paperbacks and e-books.)
