I’m only a day off this year. Last year it was over a fortnight, so I suppose that’s a partial improvement? The ironic thing is I actually did remember to post about it yesterday, only for it to completely slip my mind. Only Twitter was there to thankfully give me a nudge (given I set […]
If we can take a brief moment to appreciate my mother’s baking skills – and my photography skills -before I rattle on with the post, that’d be grand. Just under a couple of weeks ago I completed my twenty-sixth turn around the sun, leaving behind the tenuous middle-ground of ‘mid-twenties’ and coming to terms, once […]
Because one half of it wasn’t enough for one weekend. Let the fuckery continue down below: Publius Cascana – Paul McGann Given my intense childhood interests, to be honest, I’m surprised that there aren’t more stars from the Whoniverse on this list. Not-Withnail was in fact someone who ran through my head for a host […]
Welcome… To the most pointless, banal and self-indulgent blogpost to ever come out of this pointless, banal and self-indulgent blog. But hey, it’s what you come here for. This was something I started for fun a little while ago, meaning to share it a lot earlier – before Legion was published, almost certainly – but […]
How… The fuck… Did it come to this? TikTok is a social media platform I’ve always believed was for Gen Zers, that no-one my age should ever be on, let alone posting content on. I can barely keep my official Facebook and Twitter accounts afloat, and I long swore that I’d never have anything to […]
*Gasp!* A personal, self-indulgent post! On a blog devoted to nothing more than shamelessly promoting my own upcoming work and stirring up interest! Who’d have thought? …As if every word that comes out of my mouth isn’t self-indulgent. Anyway. Carrying on. A few days ago, I completed my twenty-fifth turn around the sun. The day […]
Here I am, another week on, not a single AZ-related blood clot in sight. All is well. I’m no expert on the various paths to publication (of which, it’s worth noting, there are more than two), but given I’m hoping to talk a little more about my own publishing journey over the coming weeks and […]
So… Anyone following the hit count on here as zealously as I am (in short… no-one) may have noticed that, as of this morning, the website hit quite a significant milestone. Significant for me, anyway. 500 hits in less than 3 weeks! I’m blown away, utterly, by the support so far from both friends and […]
I know, I know, it hasn’t been 7 full days yet. Sue me. I spend quite a bit of time on AuthorTube – the collective name for authors and novelists who have YouTube channels dedicated to their work, and to writing in general. It’s a brilliant place both for inspiration (seeing how people in the […]
