Found out Bring Me The Horizon and Arctic Monkeys went to the same high school, in the same year group, and now feel I owe it to my kids to move them there.

Tell me about the weird thing that happened to you to that you’ve never been able to rationally explain. Hauntings. Premonitions. Mysteries. Even the most level headed and skeptical people I know have a story that starts with ‘I don’t believe in that sort of thing, but…’ Pleeeease tell me yours!

When your phone suggests an automated ‘memories’ slideshow from your camera roll, adding sentimental music to happy, smiling photos - then randomly includes a snap you took of a gory foot injury 😂 Thanks, phone. Good to remember that!

So, I wasn't able to join #NaNoWriMo this year, but I started a new story today, and have given myself until New Year's Day to complete a first draft. (Yeah, I know.) I'm calling it #ChrimboWriMo. Hop on board if you like; there's loads of room on the magical story sleigh.

In 1916, Tolkien moved to Great Haywood with his wife Edith, to train for WW1 at Brocton camp. Between the two locations, by foot, is this wonderful, human-like oak tree planted 500 years ago, during the reign of King Henry VIII.

Writing is freedom and energy. Editing is spending 20 minutes trying to find another word for "powerful" that fits in the sentence. And then realising you're going to cut that sentence.

Hey guys, the nights are getting colder so it’s time to dust off the old PlayStation onesie. Sure, it’s something a 12yr old would wear, but I frequently don it down at the authors’ social club, and find it provides excellent protection when wrestling Mikey Morpurgo in front of the grand fireplace.
