I mean, this is perfectly true; but rather makes my point about why I don’t come here very much any more. I used to be able to post a simple thread without it appearing in an apparently random order…

Huge news from @unbounders today - the new puzzle by John Finnemore (the first person to solve #CainsJawbone in 80 years) now has a name and a prize attached... 10 murders; 100 pages; 100 images. Easy, right? (It is not).

Venturing back on Twitter just for the day… to announce the title and superb cover, by the great Tom Gauld , of my new murder mystery puzzle, published this year by @unbounders and available to preorder here: unbound.com/books/untitled… youtu.be/_OfadcV7Hks?si…

Poking my head round the gate of the abandoned funfair just long enough to shout “There’s a new episode of Souvenir Programme on BBC Sounds!” and “I’m doing a show at the Ludlow Fringe in June!”, and then running off again. ludlowassemblyrooms.co.uk/event/john-fin… bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

I am not on Twitter anymore, but I am on Substack; and links to my weekly posts there will appear on this account. He Ever Left the Pomegranate Unblemished open.substack.com/pub/johnfinnem…

I'm not here any more, but my ghost would like to point out that for mystical reasons of their own, Amazon have cut the price of The Researcher's First Murder by almost half. Down from £25 to the curiously specific £13.56. Haunting ends. Whooooo. amazon.co.uk/dp/180018364X/…

Hello. In a minute, I’m going to post what will be, I expect, my last ever tweet. I won’t delete my account, so the tweet will still be up for future Christmasses, but for live renditions from now on, try Blue Sky. I’m also on Substack.

While I’m here, there is also a new Christmassy short story by me, read by Adrian Scarborough, going out on BBC Radio 4 at 3.15 today, and available on BBC Sounds.

…And now, over to Mr. Arthur Shappey for my last tweet for the foreseeable future. Take it away, Arthur, and Merry Christmas!

Geeeeeettttt…. DRESSED ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay! For it is Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Day! It’s Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Day… it is Chri-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-histmas daaaaay! Love, The Airport.
