Writer. 2021 YA Watty winner. An avowed cynic with an optimistic streak. Queer. Bi-Polar. Funny dude. Can't decide which is more absurd: This world, or his life?

My very first attempt at a trailer. Got some heavy 70s paranoid thriller vibes going on in the middle and a touch of Wild At Heart at the finale. a.co/d/gFhCf84

13 years sober today to the day. 14 months since my last cigarette. Words are my drug of choice. It's a beautiful addiction. #author #TheDrowners #Fightingthegoodfight #Books #WritingCommunity

I can see the funny side of a book called The Drowners sinking without a trace. The Universe is a massive fan of irony. As the song says; Always look on the bright side of life. I've been to the dark side. I'm never going back #TheDrowners #Book #WritersLife #humor #BiPolar #Depression #MentalHealth

5 years of toil. 1 Watty award. Many glowing reviews. Launched yesterday. 0 sales. Devastated, but not broken. Did 10k today to outrun that black dog nipping at my heels. Never give up! #TheDrowners #MentalHealth #BiPolar #WarOnDepression #Books #WritingCommunity #WritersLife

Tired, but not beat.

Well X locked me out of my account because of 'suspicious' activity. The activity in question is my using my account for the first time in months to promote my novel. I thought billionaire Eloon was a staunch advocate of Free Speech and the working class #TheDrowners #ElonMusk #DOGE

Kurt Russell - The everyman action hero you could not only believe in, but root for. Charm without smarm. Tough without excessive brutality. Clever quips instead of dumb one-liners. And never afraid to poke fun at himself. #kurtrussel #Icon #Happy74thBirthday #MyHero #TheDrowners

After 5 years of torturous rewrites, editing, and perfecting I'm 3 days away from releasing The Drowners. The odds of it sinking without are trace are massive. Wilma Rudolph survived childhood paralysis to become the first American woman to win 3 Olympic Gold medals for running. #booksky #believe

My debut novel The Drowners drops on March18th. 3 days away. I'm nervous, excited, and downright petrified. I realize my chances of success are slimmer than an A4 sheet of paper. But, hey, I'm an irredeemable dreamer. #Writinglife #TheDrowners #Miracles #WritingCommunity #Books #Dreams

"The Drowners is a wonderful novel...I would highly recommend this book, in particular to anyone who loved the humour and nostalgia of Derry Girls, and perhaps shows like The Inbetweeners."
