William Ashbless


Born
The United Kingdom
Genre
Poetry

Influences
Tim Powers, James Blaylock, Samuel Taylor Coleridge


William Ashbless is a fictional poet, invented by fantasy writers James Blaylock and Tim Powers.

Ashbless is best known in his incarnation as a 19th century poet, in which guise he appears in Powers' The Anubis Gates (1983) and as a lesser character in Blaylock's The Digging Leviathan (1984). Neither author was aware that the other's novel contained a William Ashbless until the coincidence was noticed by the editor responsible for both books, who suggested that the two consult one another so that their references would be consistent.
