2 new books out this month. My first book from Insight Editions – Captain America: The Illustrated History and Daredevil: The First 60 Years from Titan. All this and a guest spot at the first Liverpool Book Festival next month. It's enough to make me feel like a writer. Take that Imposter Syndrome!

Hold on. Pilks old head office in my hometown of St Helens is the spitting image of the Baxter Building... but there's no Fantastic Four inside... which would explain why Galactus was able to destroy St Helens and leave only ruins... #FF

Think I've solved the AI problem for creators. AI companies can datamine and steal as much work as they want as long as artists, writers and musicians can go in to their homes and steal their possessions.

Black Doves is rather ace. Two eps in and hooked. Also a bit of me wants to see a Black Doves/Slow Horses crossover!

Flashback to my first full time editorial job at Games Workshop in the early 90s, trying to get their Warhammer comic off the ground. Still a little sad our Warrior-size mag featuring the likes of Bill King, Simon Coleby, Kev Walker and Colin MacNeil didn't get out the door... #comics #GW #Warhammer

Sold three copies of Zombie 18 this month on Amazon so will soon be retiring on the 63p that earns me. And to think, some people say writing doesn't pay!
