It's almost that time of year when my wife sits next to me on the sofa and glances at me like I'm a piece of shit. Because of what Alan Rickman did to Emma Thompson in a fictional film, released over 20 years ago.

Controversial.. but does listening to an audiobook REALLY count as reading??

Well.. depends. If you’re listening to Frank and Red.. which for the next 24hrs has got a bunch of money off.. then yes.

(If it’s ANY other book..

then still yes. Course it does, don’t be a book snob). #audiobooks

…Made the mistake of offering to sell one of my little boy’s switch games on ebay. The money’s not even bloody cleared yet!?

⏰ It’s FATHERS DAY in just a few days! 🔥 Will he want one of these books? ..probably not. But he didn’t get you that foot spa you wanted either, did he?? So, bollocks to him.

A quick Thank you, thank you, thank you! For all the messages and love and support for The Only Monster.

It jumped 36000% on publication day yesterday. I don’t think that’s even a number?? Your support is, as ever, massively appreciated. Matt x

THE ONLY MONSTER is coming soon…

I am so massively proud of this book! In a world where everything seems to be going to pot, it’s a ‘beautiful story about love and family’.

Preorders always very welcome!

And thank you so much to Waterstones for including it in their early bird offer! #booksky

Look, I know I said I’d shut up about Frank & Red for a bit, but I am contractually obliged to let you know.. the paperback has JUST been chucked in the bargain bin on the big river site that rhymes with Blammazun. 🔥 If you haven’t already read it, now would be a good time. #booksky

Bought my little boy this ‘spy pen’ for Christmas.. thought I’d maybe teach him something educational but cool about espionage or science..

I give up.
