Another excellent weekend selling and signing m’books at comic cons. Always great to meet readers, new and old… and hairy.

Ahoy, from my little island in today’s comic con in Ware! 🎼Where? Where on the stair? Right there. 🎶

If you're in Oxford tomorrow, do come along and buy some books!

I’m at Newmarket Racecourse for today’s comic con. They’ve put me by the door, which means everyone who comes in will surely buy a book! 😂

Just finished The Corn Bride by @markstay.bsky.social I loved it and will be sorry if this is the last of the series.

Much as Stevens declared that the only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream, I say the only critic is the critic of monstrously trivial nit-pickery. profadamroberts.substack.com/p/avatar-no-...

Sinners is still my favourite film of the year, and even better the second time around. It crackles with passion.

Busy first day at the London Film & Comic Con!

I just got back from setting up at this weekend’s London Film and Comic Con and reckon it’s time for another round of THINGS PEOPLE SAY TO AUTHORS AT COMIC CONS… youtube.com/shorts/T3SBX...

All set up for this weekend’s epic London Film and Comic Con! Apparently, I can’t park here, so I’m going to move the car… 🤷🏼‍♂️

The trouble with oral history books is there’s a temptation to rush when reading. Do not rush Shine On by Mark Blake, Floyd fans. This is one to savour. So much Floydian goodness between these pages: thoroughly research and tons of new insights. Highly recommended.

The nuclear codes were 1234. The Louvre security password was Louvre. Elite sex-conspirators list their names and crimes in emails and birthday cards to one another. At least Dan Brown had the church disguise its dark secrets by jumbling the letters up and doing mirror writing and lemon juice.

Do please enjoy the splendid spine and rear (oo-er!) of the very-soon-to-be-published THE END OF GODS with stunning artwork by the amazing Alejandro Colucci… I’ll be blogging with a full update soon!

Have arrived at Uni to give a lecture, only to discover it’s a crime scene for the murder of a… small monkey?

Kate Atkinson’s Human Croquet got me out of my reading funk. You can always count on Atkinson to deliver a story with vivid characters that linger and mind-bending prose that makes me think, “How the bloody hell did she do that?!”

Finally found the time to watch the new David Gilmour Live at the Circus Maximus Blu Ray, with what has to be one of my favourite renditions of The Great Gig in the Sky…

Join me with @jeevanicharika.bsky.social on the Creative Differences Livestream TUESDAY 18th NOVEMBER, 8PM GMT We'll be discussing romcoms, Canva tips for writers, Lego and more! Join us on Facebook: fb.me/e/5nQnr7bKZ Or on Youtube... www.youtube.com/live/a2s_nZc...

Such a great twist on the last-person-alive trope. Rhea Seehorn is incredible and it’s nice to see X-Files Vince Gilligan at work again. Roll on Friday.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

I’ll often pitch my Witches of Woodville series as “Dad’s Army meets Bedknobs and Broomsticks”, so I was delighted to ask Private Pike for his opinion at today’s comic con, but he was silenced by a cry of (all together now)…

Had a great day at the comic con in Southampton today, though this one was staring at me all day… 😳

Ready for anything at today’s comic con in Southampton. I’ve set up in what I’ve been assured is in no way a hive of scum and villainy…

Such a great farewell for Mum today. Standing room only! Yes, there were tears but so many laughs and happy memories. A huge thanks to everyone who came. She would have loved seeing you all.

I had a great time chatting to Chris Deacy at Cabin FM about my favourite horror movies, including one with a Herne Bay connection! My bit is about 18:18 minutes in... chrisdeacy.com/2025/11/03/c...

Join me LIVE TONIGHT with @pernillehughes.bsky.social, author of A COPENHAGEN SNOWMANCE, which is here to herald in Christmas. Yes, I said the C-word! What of it?? Facebook: fb.me/e/3zhYHqYHw Youtube: www.youtube.com/live/P6W74xA...

A "charming cosy series" and "an intriguing Kiwi mystery laced with plenty of grin-inducing elements among the dark deeds" according to Craig Sisterson's review in this week's edition of The NZ Listener 🕵️ #Mystery #BookReview #YeahNoir 🌈📚🇳🇿📚💙🔎💀📚👀📚🌎 🌈✒️

Ready to make magic (and sell and sign a few books) at the comic con in Croydon today!

I’m at the Stratford Literary Festival again today, Saturday 1st Nov, between 2.30pm and 4.30 pm where I’ll be signing my books at the Warwickshire Authors table! 🤗 I’ll also be there tomorrow, Sunday 2nd Nov, between 12.30m and 2.30 pm Hope to meet and chat with you!

My daughter got married today. It was truly magical. There will be many, many photos to follow, but here’s one of Claire looking stunning and me looking like Bilbo Baggins.

Today! youtu.be/m2GO6B-lGT8?...

Good evening, York. You’re looking suitably gothic this evening…

I’ll be selling and signing m’books at the Croydon Comic Con this Sunday 2nd November! (It was originally advertised as the Sutton comic con, and it’s actually in Carlshalton: go figure🤔). If you can find it, I’ll see you there… www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/croydon-co...?

I’m humbled by the love for this book 🙏❤️ Gordon, losing his job, finds a Right allowing sheep to run through his employer’s top London hotel. He couldn’t possibly use a 100 year old covenant…. Or could he? Based on a true covenant. t.co/bwygDSN97H

The copy edits are in! And yes, I know I've probably made that Richard Curtis joke already, but what do you want? It's early. Here's me with a gravelly voice with the update... youtube.com/shorts/WRzRv...

Day three of @mcmcomiccon.bsky.social — I’ve got tea, and books to sell*. Bring it. *Please note the deliberate use of the Oxford Comma here. I’m not selling tea. This is why we need editors.

Ooh, look what the book fairies brought me today! Excitement levels very high for this one. @gavingsmith.bsky.social ’s ALIEN: CULT is out on 25th November!

Comic con today included trying to explain the concept of a rom com to a Dalek

Day one of MCM done and it was great to catch up with @poppytperry.bsky.social just before her panel where she talked about her amazing zombie romcom debut Dead Real!!

All dolled up in my sexy hi-viz for this weekend’s epic @mcmcomiccon.bsky.social in London. If you’re coming, please pop over to the Writers’ Block in the North Hall where you’re going to find lots of favourite new authors! (And me. Sans hi-viz)

What a weird name for a dog. But sorry for their loss.

Mr. Scorsese on Apple TV: All the movie stuff is catnip for me, but the focus on his friends and family and how they influenced him is such a treat >>
