I am so happy for @leemurraywriter.bsky.social who is a wonderful writer and a wonderful person! Go Lee!

Congratulations to all nominees at this year’s Bram Stoker Awards, especially @leemurraywriter.bsky.social with this masterpiece. I’ve been shouting so long about this incredible book, I’m hoarse. Buy it. Read it. Vote for it.

Sometimes you say good morning to the internet and the internet says good morning right back.

Had a fantastic day at the UK GHOST STORY FESTIVAL in Derby. Talked on a few panels, met some great people, and even signed a few books. Great festival, was honoured to be part of it. #ukghoststoryfestival

Finding inner peace is like a gentle breeze on a warm day. This little book wraps you in comfort, guiding you toward tranquility. It taught me to breathe and embrace stillness. 🌿✨ #books #booksky

Completed this Garmin challenge today. In truth, I did 8.2 miles, but tweaked my knee when an impatient van driver decided to reverse onto the pavement, forcing me into the kerb. It happens, but going to have to have a few days off to recuperate. Have a great day, everyone xxx #running

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review for @danhowarth20.bsky.social latest. I know it’s only February, but I already know this book will be in my top 3 reads of 2025. I shit you not.

Don’t get me wrong, I think the DS is a piece of used toilet paper, scrawled upon by illiterate hacks, but even I cannot argue with this …

Did I mention that Monument: the ‘a Quiet APOCALYPSE’ Omnibus has an origin story co-written with my son, the truly awesome Tom Jeffery? I did? Oh, well, this time I managed to get the elusive rapscallion on camera, too. @demainpublishing.bsky.social

It the little things that keep me motivated … #running #BlueSkyRunning

For no reason whatsoever, a picture of my latest titles and a random glass of beer. Social media, eh? 😃 #BookSky
