Howaya, Womble. I'm wallowing in vodka and drugs, late night parties and clubs in Belfast with Close to Home by Michael Magee.

In this collection of wickedly imaginative dark tales by Vivian Kasley, you’ll discover what sometimes lurks beneath the seemingly ordinary. All that’s left to do now, dear readers, is open the book and watch nightmares come to life.

Coming this Halloween!

In the Sunday Times today talking about Leonard and Hungry Paul, Julia Roberts and the whole business.

@ofmooseandmen.bsky.social

Pic on the Sunday Times article mostly pitched at the unlikelihood of a civil servant on a small press getting Julia Roberts involved in the TV show of Leonard and Hungry Paul. (Spoiler alert: it's down to the fact that she liked the book.)

Good afternoon, Womble. I have just wrapped up Wolf in White Van by John Darnielle. It's the third novel of his I've read. I like his style.
