Staking A Claim To Possess Five Stars. Check out my 5* review of @kovacwrites.bsky.social’s sexy novella of demonic possession, The Devil's Claim. stewartbintauthor.weebly.com/stewart-bint...

Watching a programme where Henry VIII is played by the rather well known (voice) actor Richard Ridings and all I can hear is Daddy Pig…

Starting The Devil’s Claim, by @kovacwrites.bsky.social, tonight.

My mother was in the house for less than ten seconds before managing to offend me. I think we’ve reached a record 🥳

Never mind, a Yorkshire pudding wrap with all the festive trimmings will fix me… YES I’VE JUST LEARNED SUCH THINGS EXIST 👀

Don’t get me wrong, I love dogs and have owned several but if any of mine had displayed signs of nervous or unpredictable behaviour I would not take it with me on a school run where it’s going to be surrounded by excitable and unpredictable kids. It’s a recipe for disaster.

Did a home test and it came as little surprise to find my cortisol levels are off the scale. Well that explains a lot. Good morning from this anxiety-ridden mess…☕️

I keep seeing adverts for an emotional support koala soft toy and now I need one.

I park a little out of town so I can walk into work and get my steps in. Only problem is I have to walk past the most heavenly smelling bakery each day which is proving very hard to resist; so you can see my predicament here…

Looks heavenly, right? Looks can be deceiving. This is the location of my upcoming folk horror novel ‘Lullaby,’ set in a remote lake house on the outskirts of Gävle, Sweden. A mother is plagued with visions of a dead boy, meanwhile the health of her son appears to be fading before her eyes.

The paperbacks are lovely. Link below.

Pity my favourite little cafe has stopped accepting cash. I used to like going there…

What are we having for Sunday dinner? Indulge me.

What fresh horror is this?

Is it too early to put the tree up?

👀

The Switchblade Svengali, my crime novel set in 1968, is out now! In character for me, two Great Pyrenees dogs, Thibodeaux and Drucilla, play a part.

I’m feeling this 🖤

My back is screaming at me and I realise it’s because I have been sitting like this all day…

When you realise you have become the old person who hates teenagers in public places…

Oh to be a cat 🖤

Bit of light afternoon reading

Over 107,000 unread emails, guess it’s time I finally sorted through it? 🫠 Is this an ADHD thing of letting things build up?!

Morning ☕️

Just having to reshare this for those who didn’t see it/chose to ignore it/didn’t read my bio…🤦🏼‍♀️

This will fix me 💅

My kind of vending machine 😍

I’m sure I speak for most when I ask - please can we stop jumping straight into DMs when we get a follow back??

People who argue that sunscreen is bad for you would probably have you believe the earth is flat too. It’s like saying seatbelts are bad because they can break your ribs.

Repost with a fun fact about you: I’m a badass behind a drum kit.

Nothing better than being curled up with a good book listening to the sound of the rain. 🖤

"Dark Woods, Deep Water" is a dark fantasy with Slavic folklore, vindictive gods and deadly curses. It's perfect for long winter evenings.

Already done 👍🏼

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky

Perfect evening to slow cook a lamb tagine and sit in front of the fire. I love this time of year mostly for the food… …and possibly for the fact it’s dark by 4.30 so I don’t feel guilty cracking open a bottle of red.

Me, when I visit the remains of Twitter...
