Kicking off #SaturdayEvening with a go to New England IPA from Vocation Brewery unlike #Marmite there is no #LoveOrHate here… or is there?

I’ve applied every year since 2008 when I last did it! Will I finally be ‘randomly’ selected ? #LondonMarathon

It’s been 25 years this month since I registered my domain MarkPSmith .com and I’ve never changed registrar in that time! It’s 9,146 days old! I missed the exact anniversary date.

Amazon proof of my third and final book in the Theo Newton Trilogy has arrived. Out on the 1st May on Amazon and The Great British Bookstore; pre-order is available.

Coming later this year a ‘Satirical post apocalyptic thriller’

Theo Newton book 3 is finished. 😥 I’ve requested a print proof! 🙌🏻

The ‘writing’ part of Theo Newton book three has finished. It’s now a proof read and adjustment. I do edit as I go, so it hopefully won’t be all that difficult ! 🤞

60k words done & fast approaching the final chapters of the Theo Newton Trilogy.

I have just ticked past 50k words written for Theo book 3. So that’s 10k words in 7 days. These last few chapters are like a Dan Brown book but instead of Robert Langdon, we have a superhuman, who can jump through time collecting clues… That’s it for spoilers!

How about a little plot spoiler for book 3? I’ve not long ago finished a scene where Theo & this father avoid being press ganged in eighteenth century Britain. If you have read book 1 & 2, this is probably making you wonder where the continuation of the story has gone to have such a scene. Ah! 😉

The difference in price between the cheapest & most expensive filling station in the area is 36p per litre diesel. That’s £23.40 extra to fill up our van. And surprise surprise it’s an EG Shell. The owners of ASDA driving up fuel since the large acquisition. I’m boycotting all EG & ASDA stations.

Although I’ve been writing, it feels like my word count hasn’t been increasing, as if I’ve been fantasising the whole thing, but finally I’ve hit 40k words! I still have a long way to go with this final Theo Newton book, but the May deadline is looking a hell of a lot more manageable now. 🙏

Trump, you are correct, he is no Churchill. But then you are no Roosevelt.

COMPANIES HOUSE! What a cock up this ID process is! I verified in November, got my personal verification code In Jan did the reconfirmation of LTD using said PVC. Have the green check against my name on the officers page. today received a letter saying the digital id verification date has lapsed

The epilogue to Theo Newton Deception, book two in the trilogy. How is Theo going to deal with this? And we thought Thanos and the ‘snap’ was bad enough! Don’t panic! Book three is due out in Spring. #TheoNewton #TheOne #BookTrilogy #Annihilation

Author copy arrived today of what I hope will be the final cover design for my first novel, I’m really happy with how this turned out. There is lots of fine detail to be examined (Such as the title of book tree is on there) and the gloss finish give it a quality feel.

The Aurora has been hitting the news again after last nights display, alas I didn’t see it due to cloud cover, but there is another type of Aurora you can’t miss amzn.eu/d/2NMzMjL #Aurora #NorthernLights #AuroraBorealis #SolarStorm #CME2026 #SantaClaus *You can’t blame an author for trying.

My mother in law this evening. “I started to read you Santa story. I was really surprised, it’s very good. Couldn’t put it down until I was too tired to read. About halfway. It a very balanced story. Why hasn’t it sold many copies?” Me: 😀🤨😃😄😁😣 Marketing, Christmas is over, I’m an indie author.

IMAGINE 💭 A time when silicon chips are nano in scale & so technically advanced they can interface with the human brain DIRECTLY. Think of the possibilities. An end to disease? Perhaps to fear? Maybe to crime? Possibly Welcome to HELIX. It won’t JUST change the world… amzn.eu/d/8bTfLLK

An incredible review on Amazon. You never know, when you have an idea for a story, that anyone else will enjoy it. So to see such clear enjoyment from something I created is amazing, but that they took the time to write their thoughts means a lot. Thank You 🙏

Happy New to everyone.

That was the dramming year that was: thewhiskywire.com/2025/12/31/t... @glasgowdc.bsky.social @bravenewspirits.bsky.social #Whisky #Whiskey

Think a cover redesign is order. These are the concepts so far. I’ve been told my previous covers were not clear about the genre or target age.

An emergency has hit Santa’s workshop, the Heartstone that powers the magic of Christmas has a crack and the Aurora is no longer enough to sustain the magic. Will Santa Claus and his team be able to restore the magic with only days until the big day? amzn.eu/d/df8RnwD #SantaStory #Christmas

One of my friends has already read the book to their child “It captures the true meaning of Christmas, that of being kind, having belief with hope and joy. The story is well paced, the family is very believable and having a child with disabilities as a character very inclusive” amzn.eu/d/38o3KYw

My copy has arrived and the finish is exactly what I had hoped for, it has that old school feel about it. Santa Claus and the mystery of the Aurora: The quest to restore Christmas magic #ChristmasStory #Santa #ChildrensBook #Yuletide #Festive #HolidaySeason amzn.eu/d/8yw67Jk

My first children’s book is actually charting in a top 100 position for two categories on Amazon UK #20 in European Tales & Myths for Children #98 in Myths & Legends for Young Adults #229 in Magical Fantasy Fiction for Children I will take that as a win and thank you 🙏 amzn.eu/d/4efdvsy

Today I published my new novel, a children’s Christmas story about a special boy called Jack who like my son has cerebral palsy. After dreams & seeing news about the Aurora Borealis he becomes worried that Santa is in trouble because Christmas magic is in short supply. amzn.eu/d/j6DsEIl

I’ve had been wondering how I should phrase this post, in the end I figured it doesn’t really matter. U.K. Gov specifically DWP have fucked up my family’s Christmas. Didn’t receive my carers allowance this week. It transpires it’s been stopped, no reason given! Decision maker reviewing in X weeks

I’ve officially pushed back the release date for Theo Newton book three to March 2026. Changes will be pushed through in coming days. I apologise to anyone who is eagerly anticipating the conclusion to the series, but I want the best possible ending & I’m sure you won’t be let down when you read it

Theo Newton novel 3 is progressing. Not going to promise anything but I’m hoping it will be finished before the end of the year.

How is book three coming? I hear a couple of people ask. After a long period of lack of motivation together with no inspiration; perhaps that’s what writer block is. I have finally got back in front of the keyboard and have typed out a few thousand words.
