Old Gambrinus loves having his chin stroked. (Just don't touch his throat or he'll bite your fucking finger off.)

Just checked Goodreads for the first time in ages, and Future Fish is up to 100 ratings 🥳 A huge thank you to everybody who's read and reviewed my silly little comedy about depressed office workers and cat food conspiracy theories!

My favourite joke so far in Dungeon Crawler Carl is the pair of goblins called Rory and Lorelai. I couldn't resist doing a little fanart...

How do I convince my boyfriend to go see Coyote vs. Acme with me? 🤔

Reposting my profile photo in honor of Star Trek's 60th anniversary! This is me feeling the Captain Kirk fantasy at the Original Series Set Tour in Ticonderoga, NY last summer 🖖

Dungeon Crawler Carl and Princess Donut have got me thinking about what classes my cats would be if they entered the dungeon. I reckon Old Gambrinus (left) would be a paladin - big and strong, but also gentle, ready to sacrifice himself for others (except when it comes to food).

Ok I'm about 100 pages into Dungeon Crawler Carl and it's already worth the £22! Most fun I've had reading a book in ages 😁

Conor Sneyd @conorsneyd.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Everybody's been raving about Dungeon Crawler Carl, so I decided it was time to hop on the hype train! (I hardly ever buy hardbacks, so I'm praying it's worth the 22 quid 😅)

Started listening to the Tim Curry audiobooks of A Series of Unfortunate Events last night, and I was picturing his big creepy smile the entire time. 10/10!

Don't worry, I haven't been self-harming. It was just my cat scratching my arm because I went 10 seconds without petting him.

Now reading: The Gormenghast Trilogy by Mervyn Peake. This one has been on my TBR list for ages, and I couldn't resist picking up this beautiful edition when I saw it in Waterstones. (I'm a sucker for a spooky castle 🏰)

After 2.5 years of stopping and starting, losing confidence and motivation, giving up and crawling back... I've finally finished the first draft of my second novel!

I've been slacking off on my writing recently, but I'm working on a short story right now that I'm really enjoying. The process that works best for me seems to be: 1) Come up with an incredibly stupid title 2) Write a story around it

Future Fish is ridiculous and hilarious fun tinged with a surprising amount of affection. We always root for the underdog loser, and main character Mark is exactly that. I’m buying this conspiracy theory laden romp by @conorsneyd.bsky.social for a friend who takes themselves far too seriously

I'm about halfway through 'The Light Fantastic' and enjoying it more than 'The Colour of Magic'. My favourite character so far is definitely the librarian - I remember him being featured in some of the later books, but I never knew his full origin story before 😁

A few months ago, I decided to read through all of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels in the order they were published. I finished the first one, 'The Colour of Magic', and then got distracted by other things on my to-be-read list. Today, I'm finally starting #2 - 'The Light Fantastic'!

Hello #authors / #writingcommunity (are hashtags even a thing on here?🤷) I've just joined Bluesky and would love to make some friends so I don't look like a total loner. I'm an Irish author of funny fiction featuring hapless gay protagonists. My debut novel Future Fish came out earlier this year.
