Stock is currently… what I had at home but I’ll be stocking all the Kilchester editions as I expand it. Let me know if there is something particular you are after and I’ll put an order in for that first :)

Currently it’s UK only but that’s simply because I couldn’t be arsed to work out international shipping so if you are international, drop me a note and we’ll sort something out.

There’s a new bookstore in town and it only stocks ME ME ME!

I’ve added a bookshop to my website so you can buy paperbacks, hardbacks and limited editions directly (with or without my signature!)

RIP all the fictional wives, husbands, partners siblings and offspring that die before chapter one of the novel for the sake of the plot.

We won’t rember you.

Not seen it but Michele Yeoh and Cynthia Rothrock… 👌🏻

Me and the 2 folks who read my posts... and the bats.
You don't see the bats but you will... soon enough.

Stuck in the bluray of Predators (2010) and a trailer for The A Team movie popped up.
I swear it looks amazing... like an alternate universe Mission Impossible. It's shit though, isn't it?
Isn't it? Or should I give it another go?

I did the same thing in Paris! Wouldn’t necessarily repeat it but it was delicious!

I suspected much like your eldest! 18 years old last month and eyeing up university next year 🙀
We need to have a proper catch up, it’s been far too long 😸

To avoid writing, I made a starter pack of crime, thriller and mystery writers. Go follow them all.

I don't know who needs to hear this, everyone I think, but if you send a PDF to your kindle and put 'convert' as the subject it will change it to epub format for you, you're welcome

(I posted this on the other place and was surprised by how many people it helped so thought I'd do it here too.)

Kil-a-Pizza made its first (and so far only) appearance in the short story 'Just A Girl' which is currently free via my website if you fancy checking it out.

That's Mister Killeroni. Is he offering to murder himself? Is it a threat? The choice, dear reader, is yours.
One thing is for sure... he's a cutie (pizza) pie :D

In addition to my crime-comedy books being set in the fictional UK city of Kilchester, I sometimes get caught up in procrastinatory shenanigans such as creating logos for the equally fictional businesses that exist there.

I suppose I should probably (occasionally) do obtuse introduction-adjacent posts.

I’m not sure if people realise that using Gen AI art isn’t ambient or unweighted. It creates a visceral rejection reaction in certain people (like me). You might as well illustrate your work with old screen grabs from Rotten dot com.

Sorry! Won’t happen again 😩
