"Keshed hums with the vitality of lived and hard won experience that only fiction of the most transcendent kind can deliver. Channeling Bukowski, Denis Johnson and Selby Jr in a Yorkshire patois of brutal authenticity......

Judging by my inbox over the past six months, I predict that come July 2025 there will be more books in the market dedicated to Oasis than Shakespeare and The Beatles combined.

Nonfiction to look out for in 2025... Very nice to see Base Notes getting a shoutout here, Adelle Stripe's 'olfactory account of growing up in the north of the 1980s' - out next month www.theguardian.com/culture/2024...

Gonna watch Groundhog Day. Again.

First epiphany of 2025: find a jacket as cool as Dick Van Dyck’s in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Will be reporting to the Committee for Crimes Against Confectionary in due course

Yes the 1914 Xmas Day football match was an extraordinary thing but nowhere near as big an achievement as getting two teenage girls to join you on a dog walk on Boxing Day

Principal Xmas gifts: a bottle of mescal, three classic albums, and a rowing machine. Will start with the mescal and work my way up. Christmas as a mid-life miniature

I think we can all amicably agree in the spirit of goodwill to all men that the debate about whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie can and should be retired forever now. Thanks and Merry Xmas

Here it is - my new book, by @ortacpress.bsky.social - it’s lovely.

We've managed to fit in a bit of reading from beyond WR in 2024, and here are a few of the books we've enjoyed. Sending much love to the authors and publishers who have brought these into the world - hard to pick just 25 and we know there are loads we've forgotten, but it's been a long year...

2024 has been another great year for music, and here - in no particular order - are just some of the many records we’ve been loving this year. We'd love to hear your favourites too... 🎧 And here's a playlist featuring a track from each one: open.spotify.com/playlist/0Jc...

Happy Birthday to The Country Girl. Gone but never forgotten xxx

'I belong to a tradition of creativity. I believe in individual creativity being the heart and soul of mankind. I don’t want to be anything and so I live a wonderful life of freedom.' Resharing this great Billy Childish interview with @tedkessler.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

‘It is dark blood magic that distinguishes fascism from conventional hard right governments’ - one of many on the nose sentences in this excellent and timely book @induct.bsky.social @dorianlynskey.bsky.social @wnbooks.bsky.social

I’m proud to have published Tony White, especially the first book in this radically ambitious series. A writer who rises above genre to create something new with every book; a hybrid of literary pop culture & police procedural with the chops of Michael Moorcock. Bravo @unbounders.bsky.social
