If you've read and enjoyed Totally Fine, I'd be very grateful if you could leave a review on its page at Amazon. If that review is five stars, there will be a cheque in the post to you, made out to cash - because when I try to bribe people, I do it like it's still 2003. amzn.to/4nY3UIH

If anyone wonders why I'm now writing for #Warhammer, I will show them this. If 40k isn't essentially a dark comedy, I don't know what is. #warhammercommunity #warhammer40k #blacklibrary

My new book Totally Fine is out tomorrow! Available at Amazon in every country in #Kindle #Paperback and #Audible formats. 'Charlie's life is perfect... so why is he falling to bits?' #newbook #booklaunch

I have a new book out in October, called Totally Fine. It's about how men deal with trauma and their mental health. ...also hobbits. And hallucinogenic mushrooms. And a swearing parrot. Pre-order now: amzn.to/405FFy4 On #Kindle, #Paperback and #Audible #mentalhealth #mensmentalhealth #newbook

Twenty years on from the landmark blockbuster, there’s no understating its influence. Louis Chilton looks at the making and legacy of a superhero film quite like none before it urlr.me/UjZnDb

It’s been a South Downs Way kind of day, today. Which was lovely. It’s just a shame I can’t feel my legs anymore.

Have watched way too much #DoctorWho not to be somewhat freaked out by this in the local graveyard.

OH MY GOD. IT’S BEGUN LEARNING AT A GEOMETRIC RATE.

Sunday morning stroll along The Keats Way. Rather fabulous. No wonder he could crank out that poem. #winchester

Feels like moving to #winchester was a good decision 😊

Looks like it’s time to come home again 😊 #UKSummer #AustraliaWinter

I'm rarely swayed by reviews these days, but the response to @expedition33 has been so good across the board that I felt I had to buy it. Especially as @SandfallGames are a new developer not part of the corporate greed factories that make most games these days.

The issue I've always had with the turn that #TheLastOfUsPart2 takes is that it sacrifices an interesting story about a person dealing with the ramifications of their actions, with a straight forward, cliched revenge story. Always felt like a missed opportunity. #TheLastOfUsHBO

Judge Dredd being made at the same studio who are making the #Warhammer40k adaptations would be a very good thing indeed. The two share so much DNA. Hopefully great times ahead for those of us brought up on 2000AD and White Dwarf. #Dredd #Warhammer #warhammer40000 @amazonmgmstudio @warhammer

Hey @luetin09! What codex do I have to read to find out more about this bit of lore? #warhammercommunity #warhammer40000

One for you Home And Away fans out there…

Give Stephen Graham every single award right now. #adolescence

#AprilFoolsDay has rather lost all meaning, given how this year's been going so far, don't you think?

It’s been a lot of years since I worked for the police, but #adolescence on @netflix feels like it’s very accurate, from what I remember. Certainly the amount of keypad doors is realistic. I still remember the main code for my old station even now 🤣 #adolescencenetflix #netflix

They were trying to make Gemma a blank slate, so they can transfer people’s minds into different bodies, weren’t they? Lumen is about the messianic resurrection of Kier Eagan… #severance #severancefinale #severanceseason2

Souvenirs normal people would bring back from Japan: kimonos, ceremonial chopsticks, samurai sword letter openers, Mount Fuji fridge magnets… Me:

I will never not be thrilled by being able to see the curve of the Earth, no matter how many times I fly 😊

I came to #Tokyo to see cherry blossoms. I have seen cherry blossoms 😊 #shinjuku #japan #sakura

The greatest picture ever taken of Mount Fuji. Stunning, it was. The lower third of it anyway 🤣🤣 #japan #fuji

The bloody music playing at the #australianGP has reached utterly ridiculous volume levels. Totally ruins the build up. #Formula1 #ausgp #f1

The hat and the t-shirt both provide clear clues as to why, at 50, I have f**king tinnitus. #tinnitus #Formula1 #BoltThrower #sydney

Fellow writers! If, like me, you don't want @Microsoft stealing everything you write in #Word to power its bullshit AI, then follow the instructions pictured! #writers #writingcommunity #writerslife #writinglife #writing #writingadvice #authorlife

Hoo boy. I think they're making the same mistake with the promotion for this as they did with the game, and I think it's going to have the same kind of blow back... #TheLastOfUs #TheLastOfUsHBO #TheLastOfUsSeason2 #TheLastOfUsPartII

Dearest #Microsoft …

I wasn’t one percent on board with #Companion until they used the Goo Goo Dolls. Then it all clicked into place for some reason.

I do love you #Sydney. Keep it up.

Off for an evening of high culture at the best opera house in the world. And when I say high culture, I of course mean #DungeonsAndDragons. #sydneyoperahouse #sydneyharbour

If I could say one thing to the guys at Amazon Studios who are adapting 40k, I would say 'Let me join your writing team. I know my way around the building already.' ...but I would also say: 'Be inspired by this'. #astartes #warhammer40000 #warhammer40k #WarhammerCommunity

A tribute: I just found out that last year, a writer called JH Brennan died. I doubt you know him. But he was an author who had a profound effect on me as a boy. Because he wrote the #Grailquest game books. And they were absolutely marvellous. R.I.P James. I hope you're enjoying 14. #gamebooks

Much preferring #FinalFantasy7 Rebirth on PC. Got about ten hours in on #Ps5 and the awful blurry visuals put me right off. Glad to be getting another crack at it 😊 #PC #FinalFantasy #gaming

I don’t like cruises. I’m never going on a cruise. …so why can’t I stop watching cruise videos on YouTube?

Not sure I can get behind this idea of storms being named after fantasy characters, unless the next time I put the weather on I see warnings for storm nyarlathotep crossing the English Channel. “All you folks in Cornwall will want to prepare for the crawling chaos as best you can.” #stormeowyn

Is there any chance that at some point somebody who actually likes Star Trek could make Star Trek again? This seems to be the case for many franchises these days... #section31 #startrek

Tom Holland can't be the lead in Christopher Nolan's #TheOdyssey. I doubt he can grow the big bushy beard and long hair, or look right in the space suit.* *niche gag. You either know, or you don't.
