Sales so far this month.

The life of a working-class writer in a nutshell.

Happy Bloomsday.

Seems about right.

First sale this month.

Six more to go until another milestone.

My review of Saltburn (the film, not the place). culturematters.org.uk/the-enemy-with…

Jarvie has applied seven times for these awards. He obviously lacks “talent “.

Today’s film.

Next up in the Zola marathon. Not read this before.

Latest news.

Excellent news.
