Doing a final edit of the novel before a really cool pub sees it in a few weeks. Not looked at it for months and fuck me, it is REALLY upsetting in places. Hard to believe this stuff comes out of my own head sometimes 😬😬😬😬

Rose's new book Birding, out soon with Corsair Books, is one of the novels of the year; but what an amazing artist as well. She's a total fucking dude too - get on board, all her stuff is gold 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Stonking bookpost. Pre-ordered aaaages ago. Been waiting years for a translation of this. Jelinek is absolutely brilliant - totally gnarly, extremely confrontational, does not fuck about AT ALL 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Just subbed the final version of an experimental piece that took WAY longer than expected but was an absolute fucking blast to construct (not 'write), done on the fly, for free, for lots of old-school reasons around fun, creative solidarity and 'why the fuck not?' Ace 😀✊🔥

Canning Sure Start was a fucking scandal. It was invaluable to the kind of communitues i wrote about in Ghost Signs and a gold star example of why early intervention works.

Get on this. Jim's writing is fresh as fuck and these stories are brilliant 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

On top of three ton a month on the mortgage and utilities doubling, today brings the lovely news i'm a grand behind on my energy bills. If any #publishers want to chuck me a nice advance for a savagely realist novel about the working class north, now would be a great time thnx 🙏

Must-read for any fans of #BretEastonEllis 3ammagazine.com/3am/american-c… Stu Hennigan

Great new indie press to get on your radar. This looks brilliant 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I've posted this essay loads now but it's not often your work us called masterful so thanks eternal to Marc for making my night.

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Still here. Surviving though. 3 x Primary age yoof in my charge all wearing punk band shirts and chatting about Nirvana. The kids, i'm happy to say, are alright 🤘😎

Treating da kidz to an afternoon at Arcade Club. Wish me luck cos even w/meds, all those people, flashing lights + deafening noise is a special kind of ADHD hell for me. Thank fuck there's a coffee joint next door. Shame it's SBucks but can't be choosy today.

Get this on your radar, #BookTwitter . Such a fab thinker and writer, this book is going to be brilliant. Hit up Aeon+Psyche for the essay that started it all. Tremendous stuff.

Week off with the kids so got no writing-related stuff done at all. Wanted to crack on today, intended on starting this morn and have only just fucking sat down to it due to various domestic things so looks like it's the graveyard shift for me tonight.

Track's been mastered and sounds epic. Watch this space 👀👀👀👀👀

Shout out to the wanker who's trying to drunkenly fight every wheelie bin on the street on his way home from the pub. Hope one of em fights back, falls over and crushes your toes you fucking spunkmonkey.

Such a great response to this, thanks all. Newcomers to my stuff, i still insist i'm a fiction writer by preference, sample here, w/thanks to Andy Leach 🇪🇺 who originally published this in his sadly defunct chapbook series a couple years back.
