Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm an obscure writer & actor from Scotland, double amputee ADHD PTSD & attempted murder survivor.
I love #Hibs, my cat, swimming, and music.
Currently writing a magic realist book set in Scotland.
Ironically, I give good advice.
Love, Ian

In the 90s, amid the post-industrial wasteland,
Most of us were hard-up.
Good jobs were rare.
Our schemes were a mess.
The government didn't care.
All we had was dance music, and each other.
We made our own hope ❤️.

The latest novel i'm writing is so dark, twisted and powerful that it's begun to plague me with nightmares - have had to cease writing for a few days until my brain stops being a lump of crawling maggots.
a good sign?
Novel themes include weegie drug dealers, child abuse, stalking and violence

So, Mohamed Al Fayed was a misogynist sex-pest AND a massive racist...
Were he still alive, today he'd be joining Reform UK, given his own show on GB News and the tories would've knighted him

Torn now, whether to start writing the next dark novella while the idea burns bright in my brain, or force myself to go back and edit the one I've just finished. It takes about two months to write one.
Thoughts?

Hoping he would come across as he was one of the few biggish accounts to give me a follow and would interact on like minded subjects. I think he rather enjoys the constant needle though and too sedate for him on here!

The thing with switching to writing fiction is, with fiction, you're on your own.

Caught a few seconds of Sam Coates on Sky News. He suggested Reform Party Ltd have come from nowhere. Utter drivel, they're the Brexit Party renamed and didn't get many more votes in July than UKIP got in 2017. And of course they didn't field any candidates in 2019, pitiful journalism.

Weird new writing problem.
If I try to type for more than two hours I get a bad panic attack, feel sick and become generally ill and terrified for hours, then can't sleep.
It won't stop me but it's a puzzle

Today #AmWriting my first sex scenes, for my 13th book.
I'm really good at writing filth so this is fun.
Writing it does give you the horn, though, so, Tinder later
