I was 9. My parents watched it and I started watching the episode AFTER the killer was revealed.

Anyway, 9 year-old me watching Cooper going into the Black Lodge to save Annie was almost certainly where my love of horror began.

I then collected all the #TwinPeaks VHS tapes, and eventually on disk
I was lucky enough to watch #TwinPeaks in the order it came out but for many, the first two seasons were hard to come by so #FireWalkWithMe was their introduction.

Not until the show hit Netflix and released on DVD did it take off again.

How did you first find "Twin Peaks"?

Have completed a second draft on the first part of my book on fantasy adaptations to the screen, covering the genre and #Middle-earth. I've been brutal - 6,300 words cut - but it's coming together very nicely.

Now on to a re-edit on #Narnia...

Wonderful evening at the Roath Writers anthology book launch at Porters ,Cardiff. Lovely to hear so many pieces read out load. Had a great audience reaction to PC Chicken and a reprise of Winter Fucking Sports at the open mic segment.

Also delighted with PC Chicken warranting its own bookmark too!

Spending the afternoon with The Black Riders of Mordor for my book on fantasy adaptations, looking at how Ralph Bakshi and Peter Jackson's #TheLordoftheRings adapt the journey from the Shire to Rivendell.

It's interesting just how close these two films are to eachother...

A year ago, Nobody’s House was awarded Book of the Month by The Book Council of Wales. Still so chuffed with the response to my book, and @candyjarbooks.bsky.social for their support.

Maybe, I might even write a sequel?

My journey as an author is still just beginning...

Intrigued to see where #DoctorWho goes next. RTD to write the 2026 Christmas special...but not explicitly stated as writing the new series to follow?

I don't hope we get more than 8 episodes a series, though. The streaming model didn't work for this show

First time watch of #Barbarian this evening.

I loved #Weapons and was intrigued to see if Zach Cregger's previous effort was just as good.

Loved it! Kept me on my toes. Great horror, cinematography and sets, with a strong soundtrack

Intrigued to see what Cregger brings to the #horror genre next!

Last four #horrormovies watched. Not a bad batch for #Halloween. What shall I watch next?

Well done, Caerphilly! Really hope this is a sign of things to come. There is so much noise about Reform, but glad the majority chose not to go down the racist, hateful route.
Plaid have won a massive victory in the Caerphilly by-election beating Reform comfortably.

The Labour vote has totally collapsed.

It seems that in Caerphilly more people feared those who oppose immigration than the immigrants themselves.
