Besides books on film-making and the British film industry, Russell also wrote ''[[A British Picture|A British Picture:  An Autobiography]]'' (1989; published in the US as ''Altered States: The Autobiography of Ken Russell'', 1991). He also published six novels, including four on the sex lives of composers – ''[[Ludwig van Beethoven|Beethoven]] Confidential'', ''[[Johannes Brahms|Brahms]] Gets Laid'', ''[[Edward Elgar|Elgar]]: The Erotic Variations'', and ''[[Frederick Delius|Delius]]: A Moment with Venus''.

''Mike and Gaby's Space Gospel'' is a science-fiction rewriting of ''Genesis''. His last novel, also science fiction and published in 2006, is called ''Violation''. It is a very violent future-shock tale of an England where football has become the national religion.

At the time of his death, he had a column for ''[[The Times]]'' in the Film section of ''times 2''.
