Hello! My CEO Roscoe and I are giving away TWO signed copies of my novel 1983 to two randomly selected people who repost this & pop a reply below. You also get a free postcard of this illustration of Roscoe by my mum.

It’s been called “Stranger Things rewritten by Kurt Vonnegut & Sue Townsend”…

I won't tell anyone I've published a book, but there will be signs.

Perhaps the big question is, when all is said and done: Of all the phenomenal technological progress that has occurred during the last couple of centuries, has any of it awarded us anything even half as fantastic as moss?

I know the key to success in social media is consistency and frequency, but some of us have novels to write and books to read ...

I love my calm and boring days!
Someone shared this with me, and I think it's beautiful. That's what I wish for everyone I love and appreciate in this New Year 2025, that your life is filled with an abundance of real luxuries. ❤️

HOWS YOUR BOOK GOING?! HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED WRITING SOMETHING PEOPLE READ? Good luck in the trenches out there today. And remember, all you have to do is self publish a bestseller that becomes a movie and write the newspaper about it

Which one are you?
Or are you both ...🤣
there are two kinds of writers:

those who write pages of bantering dialogue and realize they didn't describe anything in the scene

and those who write pages of detailed description and realize no one's spoken for eight pages

Aiming to try each and every one when I'm writing #shortstories 😅

There's something very satisfying when your short stories appear in two anthologies, one called Life, the other Death!
