Time for someone else’s cool opinions that you didn’t ask for.
Here are my four fav films I watched this year. Worth noting that at the time of writing I haven’t seen One Battle After Another which I think I will like, but no one likes a cheater !

Just crossed 110K - Getting a little unwieldy in places, but draft one continues. I am slowly realising that this is turning into a quest-type book with a lot of walking up mountains but no hobbits or dragons are in sight..

Just finished #KingSorrow What Joe Hill has achieved with this book is equal parts deft, bold, wholesome and sheer insanity.
When you break it down these almost semi contained stories are great on their own but as a complete work, its utterly stunning
10/5 would read again !!!

Excited that I’ll have new short story out later this week
In “Bob Thompson Feeds The Fire” Bob Thompson faces the grim task of disposing of a "top hit" gang leader, a problem far more complex than the "Jim-Nobodys" he's used to.
It’s my attempt at injecting some Coen-esque dark humour into a story

LOVED Coffin Moon!! This one is bleak, violent but at its cracked and ancient heart is something special, something unique in the world of vampire fiction, where there is no glitter and everything is filthy and broken.
