Just watching Contact after a break (it was getting silly).. Its nice to think that it still pushes the same buttons 🤩🤩

Can you experience empathy with a place?

Dear writers, if you get it right, they'll make music like this to your story.. Fucking fantastic

Just watching the London Philharmonic play music from Vertigo.. #bbcproms So fantastic, so much drama.. Oh. My. Lord. ❤️

The finest response I've seen so far.

Haha!! We would end up probably writing about Byron again 🙄 #horrorwriterschat #johnpolidori

Hmm, not time travel as such. I once had the idea of nazi super soldiers that were experimented on during the war, who were walled up under the streets of London, presumed dead, until when a new tube line is built, releasing them from their vault.... Does that count? #horrorwriterschat

The tube has been ripe for some time now... But I guess in the 1990s or early 2000s it was properly dank, dark and dirty. You would want to keep looking over your shoulder if you were there late at night, alone in a tunnel #HorrorWritersChat

So hi #HorrorWritersChat I be Eryn, I write mainly psychological horror and I live in Germany. My historical doppelganger would be Plath: because we are both obsessed with existential dread and the inevitability of decay :D

I'm Nick, I live in a shack, somewhere north of Kilburn station and I'm the spitting image of John Polidori #HorrorWritersChat

If I were immortal, I would definitely own a book shop that sold rare books... But mine would be so much more gothic.. I would just drink wine and smoke fags and tell everyone 'the shops closed!'

Television legend Stephen Colbert has just signed a $13.5 million deal with Netflix for a 7-episode series.

Does anyone else channel conversations with god through the random shuffle on their music streaming service??? (Jesus doesn't like skippers!) 🧐🧐

Man who creeated the problem positioning himself to solve the problem. Channel crossings are rising because of Brexit, but his solution is to dump rights for all of us www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... 1/

Less we forget (just how brilliant they were), happy Friday - youtu.be/M2c6qblEwnQ?...

God I've missed this. Walking, taking a picture, bit of processing and sharing. I need to do more of it...

Just so you know. I am for good. Spirtualism has always been corrupted, always. But I strive for good.

The door opened, I looked round and froze. It, so, totally, moved, by, itself. I stood, it was the only way out, I felt oddly calm, like all emotion had fled. Walking closer, there was nothing, void. I looked back, all I could see was the sticky mess of black fading into red. I stepped out..

#HorrorWritersChat Scrying is the BEST! But, in narrative, eitther/or. Windows are the 'outside', stuff that's (uhummm) 'elemental', mirrrors are what is 'inside', in the house, in your bathroom, in your psychie, in your soul

#HorrorWritersChat Don't go in the dining room. It's dark in the dining room. If you go in there without the light on, sometimes you might see a shadow in the corner. Sometimes it rocks back and forth, especially when it's agitated. But don't worry, it's only Stephen, poor old Stephen.

I'm telling myself I'm going to do this every week. Right, I am from the Isle of Britagnia, and I write odd, slightly romantic, esoteric and spirtual BS with a liberal sprinking of ghosts.. Bit like Emily, who is my spirtual guide (she's fucking useless btw)...

I just want to write, in a wonderful, magical, disturbing, messed up fantasy world, where unlike the real one it seems, the good guys always win in the end...

Okay, so I heard something this morning that suggested 'leaning into' imposter syndrome. Well, I certainly feel like an imposter as a writer, so I'm going to lean into it and see what happens

Just watching Nosferatu, its very good. But question, which cast members home village has a link to the first modern vampire story?? For 1000 points (not really a clue, its also the village where I spent my childhood)

So Im starting a new story which means I have to watch ALL teen coming of age quest movies EVER. Im going to start with Super 8, then The Goonies, Stand by me, The Lost Boys, BMX Bandits, IT, ummm theres another one, the one on TV, I cant remember what that ones called. #Ilovemyhobby

I told you, it's about vampires

@robinince.bsky.social Good timing (unlike some buses).. #buses #thebeatles #dayinthelife youtu.be/UYeV7jLBXvA?... Are you sitting comfortably? Okay, so Imagine someone who has had a very bad experience.

Did you know 'A day in the life' by The Beatles is about vampires? It is, I'm going to prove it...

20 years ago today, I commuted to work in London. There was some issues with the tube on the way. My girlfriend, Martine, was out the night before so I texted her. Later, realising that there was a problem with the Circle line, I phoned her. I must have phoned her about 40 times. By lunch, we knew..

82,204 words. Finished the first draft of Black Swan Lane..

I've just been informed that my son will be on the one show tonight. My life is strange...

I did actually walk home worrying that I didn't express my gratitude for a great show, but then I made a cup of tea & forgot. It's just now I've remembered to write a post to say thanks.. So, err, thanks for a truly uplifting and inspiring evening!! @robinince.bsky.social

The great @robinince.bsky.social is in town! He signed me book too!! 👍👍

True Romance is the best movie ever.

Traffic update. No matter which route you take today, you'll still wish you were wandering through the old forest searching for portals to the faerie realm where you can finally become the dark legend you were always meant to be.

Whats your favourite tree? Here's a good candidate, the copper beech. This beauty stands majestically at the back of my property. It's like a city from afar, jackdaws fly around it like police helicopters. Its depths hold complete lives. Families, communities, life, death. Its beautiful.

Can a good ghosts fear manifest as a really bad ghost?

It's funny how time and again I get drawn back to pagan. All the madness in the world, all the things of being an adult, a parent, a creative, forced along with the teaming throngs of society, you tend to forget what really drives you and where the true connection is. Time to reconnect...

House-bound #horror

Wow! Turns out #wetleg have written a song in honour of my book #blackswanlane!!! (true, not true).. youtu.be/HeL2M8jBEI4?...

Warm, wet, westerly, winds ☺️

FEW!! I wish I could tell you what I just wrote. It was all a bit emotional... I'm off to bed to dream about haunted Sheffield. #blackswanlane #ghoststories #hauntedsheffield #indiewriters

I am sitting and having a coffee & cheese toastie in Costa. Mostly because Ive just written about Danny doing the same thing in my story. It has occurred to me tho that I havent really seen much of the commercial world in the past 5 years, and, its quite nice really, as long as you have money obvs 🧐

Guilty secret, just totally blasted through the last 3 episodes of Andor, Rogue One and now Ive just started A New Hope.. Im doomed...

All change please, all change! Sorry for not keeping up with my writing of late, bit of a move in job roles.. I promise to dive into the heady world of Danny and Eva tonight...

I have thought for a very long time that I may have been Bramwell Bronte. I would like to imagine I was Emily, Ann or Charlotte bit realistically, I'm more of a Bram..
