Happy Friday all. Latest #latteart failure. My writing process is 80% terrible Latte art, 10% listening to The Cure on repeat, and 10% actually plotting out dark psychological thrillers. #Writing

Friday I’m in love with a new plot twist that will ruin someone’s life. 🖤 The weekend is almost here, which means some few hours uninterrupted with my manuscript and Disintegration on repeat. Photo: Me at Chester Storyhouse reading an excerpt from my novel The Great Orme #BookSky📚💙 #Writing

Ants give us a useful model of how single members of a community can become so organized that they end up resembling, in effect, one big collective brain. Our own exploding population and communication technology are leading us that way- Lewis Thomas

Friedrich Nietzsche (Twilight of the Idols): "Without music, life would be a mistake." I think he meant "Without music by The Cure, life would be a mistake." #TheCure

This is me being dramatic a couple of years ago as I finished writing The Great Orme. The huge and ancient limestone headland that is the Great Orme is just out of shot on the left (you'll just have to trust me on that). #TheGreatOrme #BookSky💙📚 #Wales

My photo of Johnny Depp and Alice Cooper (Hollywood Vampires) at Manchester AO Arena last night. Don't want to say too much about it because well if I've nothing nice to say... Although I will say support The Jesus and the Mary Chain were quite good.

The Great Orme published in October 2024, so it means so much to me that actual people are still buying it and feeling it. #TheGreatOrme #BookSky📚💙

And finally... A week off. Starts with Hollywood Vampires (The Jesus and the Mary Chain supporting) tomorrow, and none other than The Cure on Friday. Cmon!

While walking Daisy just now I saw this striking plant, apparently a Lords-and-Ladies, also known as Cuckoo Pint. And it's extremely toxic as in do not touch ☢️
