This little badboy just came out today. A YA anthology with my story, Five Second Freddy, where the superheroes can only perform their gifts for 5 seconds. Very much looking forward to the other tales in there!

Did you watch The Hack? I can't believe papers have gotten away with destroying lives for so long. That's why I've signed the petition, set up by Hugh Grant and other phone hacking victims, to demand fair, independent regulation. Join me: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/a-...

Watching "The Limey" for the first time. When asked about a regular income, "I do - I'm on the dole..." is just spectacular in the middle of an L.A. noir. 💚

The primary diff between writing fiction and nonfiction is when you write nonfic, you research a topic for 2 weeks and then write 1000 words on it and when you write fiction you research a topic for 2 weeks and get one sentence out of it.
