Beardy slapheaded quinquagenarian.

Computer programmer who likes cooking and rambling and taking photos of stuff. I'm even less fascinating than that makes me sound.

Rather than just sit on my kap, our cat has developed the habit of sticking his arse in my face for minutes at a time while he pads away with his toe spikes.

It’s true. We are publishing a mini-collection by this talented writer. Normally we publish stories singly, in pairs. If that makes sense. Something made us break that pattern.
My first collection of short stories is out this month (17 October) on @nightjarpress.bsky.social ! Very excited. And nervous. But mostly excited.

Keep seeing this on the BBC:

"Denmark says 'professional actor' behind drone incursions over its airports"

And my mind makes the obvious leap.
