Works
Born in Exeter, he was the nephew of tenor saxophonist Ronnie Scott. At the time of his death, Lane lived in south Birmingham, where he worked in health publishing. The latter city frequently provided settings for his fiction.
Although the majority of Lane's short stories can be categorised as horror or dark fantasy, his novels are more overtly mainstream. From Blue to Black (2000) is a portrait of a disturbed rock musician, whilst The Blue Mask (2003) follows the aftermath of a brutal and disfiguring attack.
Something Remains, edited by Peter Coleborn and Pauline E. Dungate, (Alchemy Press, 2016) is a collection of stories by other hands “based on and inspired by the notes left by Joel Lane”. This Spectacular Darkness, edited by Mark Valentine and John Howard (Tartarus Press, 2016), is a collection of his critical essays on fantasy and horror fiction, together with appreciations of his work.
Guest appearances
Lane addressed the Birmingham Science Fiction Group in March 2002 and was a guest speaker at Microcon 30 in March 2010.
Politics
Lane joined the Socialist Party in 2009 and contributed to its newspaper, the Socialist, and its journal, Socialism Today.
