While the wife watches Harry Potter, I’m cracking on with this. Man alive those first 50 pages are intense.

Started playing with format for a new short story. Kind of a fun exercise in finding alternative ways to invoke fear.

I used to be such a fan of Neal Asher. He was my favourite author for a long time. But, alas, he’s become yet another author that’s picked a hill to die on I find disappointing and disagreeable.

Do better Neal.

Sadly, this book isn’t going to finish itself.

First book haul in a year. It’s like early Christmas 😂

Adolescence on Netflix. It’s probably one of the most emotionally devastating pieces of TV in recent memory. It’s honestly perfect: one of those rare achievements where everything works so well you forget you’re watching tv. It’s a masterpiece in every sense of the word.

Gotta love Amazon recommending you’re own book 🤦🏼‍♂️

After DNFing two pretty risible thrillers (Blood Orange by Harriet Tyce and Runaway by Peter May, if you’re curious), I figured it was time to give this big o’bastard a go.

Not sure what’s happening on Amazon, but I can categorically say that Blood Lies in the Pages is longer than 1 page 🤣

Full cover reveal for my next book, BLOOD LIES IN THE PAGES: a collection of deliciously evil and bloody tales to make you shudder.

Releasing 30th June 2025.

My wife gave me a massage as my upper back was feeling tense. I forgot she’s trained as a masseuse. That was rather painful 😂

RIP David Lynch. Few filmmakers have captured nightmares so authentically than him. A damn shame.

The only book I received this Xmas. Shocking I know 😂 Let’s see if it’s any good.
