Eden. Beneath crystal blue skies, order existed. Verdant grasses and fruiting plants sustained the animals who gave their flesh and organs to fill the bellies of those raised and sculpted in His image, and observed with perfect and total clarity, by The Word. There were changes and refinements made to each stage of the process. … Continue reading The Lilith: An Excerpt.

Halfway
With the sixth book, I have reached the mid-point. This is the most challenging of the stories I've written about Ron, going deep into some areas which I've not seen in the style and genre. So forgive the relative lack of posting, as I am keen to get this finished before the end of the … Continue reading Halfway

Could, Not Should
Ahead of its release on 26/10/2020, here is another in a series of short stories to promote The Lightning Thesaurus, my next book. Tal watched the pub, huddled against the rain underneath a cloak which had more patches than cloak to its name.

The Ron Brandywood Capers – 2023
The actual book is done. Edited, refined and ready for consumption. So, now onto the parts of the process: Covers. They're interesting, as a lot of great covers are appropriate to their medium. A great album cover isn't necessarily a great book cover or even a comic book. My personal favourites with the latter are … Continue reading The Ron Brandywood Capers – 2023

Watching and Reading.

Jon Bernthal's soulful and self-destructive performance gives the whole story a raw and rugged authenticity. It is a considered production with the same melancholy wisdom as The Wire. THE … Continue reading Watching and Reading.
What I’ve Been Reading and Watching
Moon Witch, Spider King. Brutal, earthy and poignant. James' ongoing Night Star trilogy goes back to events before the first book, and the single protagonist, Solonga, the eponymous Moon Witch is compelling and complex as any character in fiction. The patois James uses for her has a gorgeous rhythm to it, and the story itself … Continue reading What I’ve Been Reading and Watching
