My new novel: Gnashrat the goblin is sick of working in a call centre, and embarks on an epic quest to make his business plan a reality. #fantasy #parody

Ok, so the train's 4 hours late. I'll give them 2 more hours then I'm giving up.
@All_read_E Thanks! I'm a long way from that stage, but will bear it in mind.
I've decided to put my project of the last 18 months aside. A new, better, idea has come along. #amwriting

My attempt to fix my laptop killed it completely. Apparently shouting "Rise from your Grave" doesn't help. Factory settings it is, then.

Politics should be about proving you are right, not that your opponent is wrong. Your idea might be just as flawed as theirs.

Back on Twitter after a long absence. Work on the new novel continues.
I've started to make progress on a new novel, in a new genre.
Enjoying the nostalgia of #ultimate90sparty!!

The short story is with my proof-reader, so should be finished soon. I hope to follow the story with a full novel now.
The short story has a new title, but is threatening to turn into a full length story. I kind of like that it has a life of its own, though.
So there's already an ebook called The Crying Stone. I'll need a new title.
Nearly completed The Crying Stone, a short story I intend to make available as a free download. Part of a bigger project I'm working on.
Reading Agent 6 by Tom Rob Smith to take a break from the genre. Well worth a read.
Explosion in Bermondsey last night completely ignored by news sites today. Thankfully nobody hurt!
Is a radical change of genre good or bad? A way to expand or alienate a fanbase? I'm trying to think of writers who have done it well.
@bryony_gordon and the staff at the Dogs' Home. I should think they're pretty busy tonight.
