Been messing around with varying cover designs for my favourite novel, trying to find the secret sauce to get people to give it a shot… www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DV4LLWLK

This list makes me unreasonably happy… can’t wait for my next to arrive… then to brush off my 40 year rusty basic programming skills hahah

It’s (Kiddy) Fiddler on the Roof

Okay, this album just went live and it kicks ass. You like that Icelandic rock vibe of Kaelo? I may be biased as the song Silver is based on my novel of the same name, but wow... #music #nowplaying #rock 🎧 🔁 to spread the word and help it reach more music lovers! ▶️ Listen to the album #Spotify 👇

Rock Gods of old unite! Joe Satriani and Steve Vai are indeed rock gods. And it isn’t raining yet.

Was meant to be in Copenhagen tonight with the crew of Chronicles Medieval celebrating the various milestones we’ve hit including the trailer, new community etc, but instead am home with the lurgy. Sigh. Next time. @rawpowergames.bsky.social

This is the game devouring most of my life right now... and yes... yes indeed... that is Tom Hardy you can hear there...

I don’t post much these days but can I just say I am one flippin’ delighted Spurs fan this morning. Tottenham til I die or they kill me. #COYS

The headline says it all... free for a week, all you have to do is sign over your soul... #writingcommunity #freeebooks #freebooks #indieauthor #ercan'tthinkofanymore stevensavile.com/landers/free...

It's April... and April is Nick Curran month... Taut, devastating, and full of quiet fury, No One to Bury is a haunting story of love, loss—and the impossible lengths we go to when we refuse to let go. Right now, for the launch week, it's a 99p special. 💙📚 www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0F4PMV5HQ

Spent the weekend building myself a website (how very 1999 of me) and decided to set it up so that anyone joining the newsletter at the bottom gets a free novel... which is currently being recorded for audio release in a few months. #freebooks #newsletter #ebooks #writingcommunity stevensavile.com

After a lot of deliberation, hemming, a wee bit of hawing... lots of hair pulling out... I think I am finally happy with the Codex Ogmios reboot...

So new job just sent me a stupidly powerful laptop - like the most expensive piece of kit I have ever owned. Took me an hour to realise it's a UK keyboard... I've been gone that long, and working on Nordic keyboards I actually didn't recognise the key placement as the one I grew up with.

All work and no play…

#1 in British Horror. This book is a love letter to 80s and 90s British horror writers I grew up on, Stephen Laws, Mark Morris, Steve Harris, Clive Barker & Stephen Gallagher. 💙📚 #writingcommunity #horror #amwriting #ebooks #pls share :) www.amazon.co.uk/Thornhill-In...

So, launch day, hit #1 in British Horror, #1 in a few other charts on the 'Zon. Deflippinlighted with that. This book is a love letter to 80s and 90s British horror writers I grew up on, Stephen Laws, Mark Morris, Steve Harris, Clive Barker & Stephen Gallagher. www.amazon.co.uk/Thornhill-In...

Ending the book launch day at #1 in British Horror and a few other slots is a very nice return to writing horror after pretty much 30 years away playing in crime and fantasy.

They whispered tales of Hamerwych – of witches, devils, and children lured away. This summer, the whispers become screams. Ancient forces are awakening, demanding a tithe paid in blood and innocence. The forest is coming. The new @stevensavile.bsky.social horror is currently 99p on Amazon.

And number five in British horror (with a bullet) that’s not a bad return to horror after 30 years away. #writingcommunity #horror #newrelease #bookbirthday www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0F3WGHSWH

A number one hot new release? I'll take that. www.amazon.co.uk/Thornhill-In...

Surprise… brand new massive folk horror dark fantasy, Thornhill, sneaking out today, 99p/99c perfect for fans of that sort of small town creeping horror of Stranger Things and the King himself. #newbook #ebooks #writingcommunity #horror #folkhorror #britishhorror www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0F3WGHSWH

Just had some ridiculously cool news regarding who is voice acting for the new game and will be making my deathless dialogue sound super cool haha could not be happier.

So, I've been messing around a lot, thinking about the fact my folk horror I wrote last year is about 200 pages too long for trad, and have been stretching my photoshop skills... trying to work out what is the best 'look' - thoughts #writingcommunity

And now another day in the hospital - better chair today at least.

Life is hard. The magic is surrounding yourself with good people to navigate the toughest times with. Wisdom brought to you by the weekend from hell and ten hours in the ER. #fuckcancer

SO, yeah Meta have stolen 81 books and stories of mine to train their LLM... not one or two... 81.

@galleybeggars.bsky.social trying to respond to Hilary's mail but keep getting the weirdest rejections from the server - so trying here to say, alas, I am one of the problem children. Sorry to be the bearer of post office evils :(

On the way home from Heather Nova last night, and she has to be one of the most under-appreciated voices music. I’m not sure I’ve heard a purer, better vocal performance in years. Properly brilliant singer. And much love to the Dutch lady in the audience who got up to duet with her on London Rain.

On the train for the next gig in the epic week of music… this time it’s the wonderful Heather Nova at Södra Teatern in Stockholm. Saw her 27 years ago when Walk this World was a hit. Should be a grand night. Then Midge Ure in a few days… The Watch, Steve Hackett… Satriani and Vai…

Debut visit to the new record store in town, came home with... Breakfast in America, Tubular Bells, East Side Story, The Alarm Eponymous, and Rush Max Webster... to celebrate the new gig ahem... Very dangerous having a record store in town again....

I accidentally posted this yesterday when Americans were not buying anything, so here it is again!

This is an offer too good to miss, so grab a copy now! I've got mine, and it's gone to the top of my TBR list :) #freebook

Well it’s 25 years old now (publication it’s actually closer to 31 years old in writing the first draft terms). A collectors hardcover with a bonus 100 pages of me talking about writing that first book and loads of excerpts of stuff that didn’t make the Final Cut. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DJHS9XN6

Ah man, Joseph Wambaugh has died - absolutely gutted. Probably my favourite writer of crime fiction ever.

Trying something out: dl.bookfunnel.com/qsk9b4iawk Grab a free copy now - @stephengallagher.co.uk liked it :)

@stevensavile.bsky.social It's time www.ebay.co.uk/itm/22661905...

So... publisher forgot to send me my author copies of Step Inside My Soul... a little nudge from the agent, a little apology and an hour later a shipping notice arrives... all good, thinks I... until I see they've sent me ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY FIVE fucking copies... erm

In a project of a lifetime, HIS BEAUTIFUL HANDS, Oscar Cook's (1888-1952) debut collection, edited by me, is available to buy on Lulu and Amazon. Cook chiefly wrote Borneo-based horror fiction, and 28 of these stories are being reprinted for the first time in 100 years. Links to order under post.

So today is my new book day. This time, it's a really weird day. I'm in the British Embassy again, accelerating this fight with Sweden for British rights, and at home my wife is dealing with her worst day post first chemo session. This is not the life I expected. But it is the one I will fight for.

And today is the day… Blood Will Have Blood is unleashed on the world. It’s my favourite of my books by far, in my head I’ve always thought of it as my Edge of Darkness… #booksky #newrelease #ebooks #kindle #kindleunlimited #writingcommunity #thriller #amwriting www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DV4LLWLK
