The trailer for Patchwork - a new erotic body horror film is live now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yOZ... Learn more (and help support the film) here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/nex...

In 2018 I set up a film company. We've just finished our seventh feature and have already started shooting the next...

Patchwork started filming yesterday. We will be done by June.

Do you read my work? Did you know, by downloading any of my titles from Amazon (or making a purchase from my store), you could be in with a chance to win a Kindle Paperwhite? See the picture for more information.

Pre-orders are up today. Due to content, this book will not be available on Amazon. www.indiegogo.com/projects/dau...

Happy New Year and all that bollocks. Just don't set yourself any goals... Not tonight. Too much pressure. Set your goals any other day but tonight. Fuck New Years Resolutions.

Promised myself a little time off from writing for a while (got 6 novellas written, a handful of short stories - none of which have a release date). Yet... The same day I decided that? A story leapt to mind and I started writing.... 3 Chapters in.

All orders over £30 get a limited edition chapbook for all of December :)

When you tell Keanu you would have reacted the same way if someone did “that” to your dog too

There’s this man-bun prick on the train who is mouthing off and asking if he is invisible because people keep knocking him. The thing is, the dumb cunt literally has his legs in the aisle and is expecting people to step over him. I’d like someone to leg stamp him.

GPK, an extreme found footage film, has finally been finished and is off to distributors!

Monday I am meeting Keanu and getting two books signed. One of which I will be keeping, one of which will be given to a random person on my Facebook author page. Full details can be found here: www.facebook.com/mattshawpublications

Every time I read @themattshaw.bsky.social I seem to forget just how sick and twisted he really is. Reading obscenely bizarre right now and seriously, unless you have like zero triggers and are into extreme extreme horror, you really really don’t want to be reading this. Great stuff!

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/11639898... Not long left to score three rare books!

Never understood posts where people say, "Tell me what book / film to read / watch next". I tend to just look at what takes my fancy and go from there... Or people asking others to convince them to finish a book / film. If you dislike it, move on. Why do you need someone telling you what to do?

All orders over £30 come with a limited edition chapbook. Valid today through to December 31st

There have been many of @themattshaw.bsky.social 's books that have made my stomach churn. But #thechallenge tops it off. I think I've read maybe 100 pages of the whole thing in full the rest I've skimmed because I don't want to smell the words! #booksky #splatterpunk #book #passthesickbucket

When you have money, banks hound you asking if you want to borrow some. When you have none, the banks don't want to know you. Does my nut in.

Got to love a dust-jacket.

A collection of topical extreme horror (Roe V Wade and Your Body, My Choice) is available on Amazon now.

A final near-on 40 hour editing push and I’m pleased to say GPK is “finished”. (We have one more watch to give and may make a few tweaks here and there but other than that, it’s done!) Total running time: 1 hour 22

And today I'm "a certain type of man" because I used the word "bitches" in a title.... If someone can just give me a list of what is and isn't allowed that would be great, thanks :D

Few screenshots of our feature film GPK. We should have it full edited by tomorrow evening. Also, fun fact, this production was under police investigation for a few months. A couple of weeks ago we got the news, "No Further action".

Listed on eBay as one listed: Proof copy of Sheep Proof copy of The Challenge A copy of The Unreleased Shipping internationally and bidding for just 10 days only: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/11639898...

Armand is well old today. Buy one of his books while he is "young" enough to remember and be happy you supported him :)

Not even sorry. The deluxe hardback of "The Challenge" ships with tagged (with the below) and signed pants. These have a brown stain (acrylic paint), a little spray of fart mist and - for extra freshness - will be sealed. Never marketed a book like this before!

A free 45 minute video I made in an effort to help those looking to write and release their own books. Here we talk about pretty much everything you could possibly need to know. Need to know something else? Just ask below and I'll answer as best I can!

The irony of releasing this book on International Men's Day. YOUR BODY, MY CHOICE! OUT NOW ON KINDLE! The women take their revenge against the idiot men who decided to try and turn "Your Body, my choice" into a saying. UK LINK: amzn.to/3AQy8di US LINK: amzn.to/4hXBw6U

ergghhhh went to the dentist and had a tooth pulled. Never gets any nicer.

I struggled with my first university assignment on latest module and essentially told them to "fuck off" in my paper. I got 53 which is a pass. Low? Sure. But a pass is a pass and that's all I care about given I've never been good at school.

Feels weird here, scrolling through and seeing "normal" posts with no bickering and hate. Refreshing but weird. Here's hoping it lasts.

"The Challenge" is now available to download instantly from my store. Signed paperbacks also available. Approximate page length: 320. This book is extreme. It is NOT for those who are sensitive or easily offended. mattshawpublications.bigcartel.com

And "Your Body, My Choice" - a new extreme horror novella - has been finished. Taking the idiotic phrase and putting the power "back" in women's hands as, in the story, they go for revenge against the wannabe "alpha males".

The best time to go to the cinema is always middle of the afternoon, during the week (does not apply to school holidays)

If authors write about hot topics, it is because they want to profiteer from them instead of helping raise awareness to fight back against issues. That's what I'm told every time I write a book based on current events and iIt says more about those complaining than the creatives using their voice.

In two days, if Mike Tyson doesn't floor this little prick, I'm going to be some damn depressed!
