Tattoos are forever… Forever and ever. You know how it is, you go out for a few drinks, then you have a few more. These are followed by shots and then cocktails – before you know it you’re lying topless on some stranger’s couch getting the words to the Lord’s Prayer tattooed up and down yo...

It's Valentine's Day! So why not read INK. My story in it is most certainly a love story at its core. It has love, loss and a spooky ghost!!

Happy Friday the 13th!
Don't forget to leave a machete out for Jason tonight and also don't forget to check out my Friday the 13th homage series DEATH HEAD VALLEY. All the blood, gore and yuks of the Jason films but in kindle form!

The blood has not yet cooled on the ground as more victims enter the valley, unaware that there is an unyielding force there whose only desire is to kill. Kill! KILL! CONNOR FINLAYSON IS REAL. No longer a thing of speculation and myth, the monster that stalks the Death Head Valley carries o...

As an author and an artist, my promise to you is thus:
I will never, ever use AI.
Whenever I draw a w***y on the walls of a public toilet.
Whenever I write a story about a sentient killer toilet.
It will come from a place of heart and soul.

With my computer being broken I've been drawing instead. Working on a mock up comic cover for a friend's D&D character. Ink on Bristol Board. 🍻

Thank you so much for checking it out!

August round up:

Brianna Raine - Skullface
Lee Mountford - Haunted: Perron Manor
Rob Ulitski - High Steaks
James Patterson & Emily Raymond - Emma On Fire
David Charlesworth - Death Valley
Carissa Orlando - The September House

Once again, all of these books were great. Some quality short reads with Death Valley and Skullface ; Haunted: Perron Manor was a great start to a spooky series, High Steaks was a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed Emma On Fire! It was do original. I've not quite finished The September House but I'm really enjoying it.

Who else has read any of these?

As you know, mine and DE McCluskey's book is out today! I know some of my mates aren't big readers, so I did a quick read of the first prologue to try and whet their appetites.
