My new story is out in The Pink Hydra today! www.thepinkhydra.com/issues/02022...

Almost time to dust off my Ghostwatch and The Stone Tape DVDs.

Not quite sure how to answer when somebody asks why you don't have a Wikipedia page... I dunno man, maybe I don't want people finding out I'm three angry badgers in a trenchcoat?

Many thanks to everybody that's liked, re-posted or commented on all my book-related news this week. It's very much appreciated!

Something interesting might be coming along later today...

Happy 71st Anniversary of the Hunt for the Gorbals Vampire, when school children gathered at Glasgow's Southern Necropolis to seek out the rumoured kidnapper of small boys! Read our Cameron Johnston's take on the legend, Surviving Life, at the link below. @cameronjohnston.bsky.social

The Scour drops 20/10/25. "You're gonna love this" - @nicholaseames.bsky.social "Hugely enjoyable" - @annasmithspark.bsky.social "Packed with atmosphere." - @cameronjohnston.bsky.social "Even better than I'd hoped for." - @fondalee.bsky.social "A must-read" - @lukescull.bsky.social

Working my way through the final pass of copy edits on First Mage On The Moon, and still picking up the odd error -Whitelaw instead of Whitlaw for example. It's always good to have another pair of eyes looking over your text as it's so easy to go 'page blind' when you know what it's supposed to say.

BIG BIG DAY! Pantomime is out TODAY in the US! 🎉 Don't worry UK readers, it will be coming to shelves near you on Thursday💜 Let's fly, me lovelies🎪

I've really loved listening to the Broken Veil podcast by Will Maclean and Joel Morris - heartily recommended if you loved the Lovecraft Investigations, urban folk horror or spooky urban legends. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/b...

Had a wee visitor at the window of the cottage.

Another day, another Iron Age broch. This time, Dun Beag, on a commanding hill overlooking the valley.

Aha, copy edits on the next book have landed!

Visited Dun Telve and Dun Troddan Iron Age brochs, built ~2000 years ago and some of the best preserved buildings of their type. The Scottish weather was not with me today, but it was atmospheric.

The Old Man of Storr, what a sight!

Into an Iron Age souterrain, a subterranean storeroom. Narrow and cramped and muddy as anything.

Congratulations to all the Dragon Award winners! Have to say, it felt great to be on that shortlist. Many thanks to everybody who nominated and voted.

The land and seascape of Skye never fails to take my breath away.

Off exploring Skye, visiting Dun Scaith (Fortess of Shadows) castle, built on the fabled training site of the Irish Hero Cú Chulainn.

Visited the set of the new Spiderman movie filming in Glasgow at the moment. Watched an armoured personnel carrier roar down the road, but no sign of Tom Holland. Lots of kids in Spiderman costumes though :)

That thing as an author where you just got some good news but can't share it yet. That.
