I may have accidentally helped create the perfect Christmas gift for the Doctor Who nut in your life, the one who probably ranks jelly babies by flavour.

Looking for a kid's book for #Halloween?

I've written a spooky novel about a family that move into a haunted house. It's funny and a little spooky

Nobody's House is an adaptation of the 70s kid's TV series, and it's available from @candyjarbooks.bsky.social

Writing also involves drinking a lot of tea. What I really need is Tom Bombadil's hedgehog teapot...

Baz Greenland @bazgreenland.bsky.social · 4d

After a few weeks off writing, it is time to get back to my book on fantasy adaptations to the screen.

I've got an end of year deadline. Time to throw myself back into the world of #Middle-earth, #Narnia, #Westeros and many other fantasy worlds...

Reform keeps arguing immigration is an issue when it isn’t.

There is a by-election right now in Caerphilly and Nigel Farage’s party keeps saying that immigration is an issue there.

BUT over 97% percent of people in the area were born in the UK.

We need to debate based on facts not scaremongering.
