I think this The Vessel reel is extraordinary. A trailer that creates a glimpse into a mythical film adaptation of the novel. One I'd really like to see. Amanda, of Crooked House of Books, made this after reading The Vessel. She's on Instagram as @crookedhouseofbooks .

She's coming out soon. Her expression will be subtly unique on 599 covers. On #600 , the cover will be blank, & that lucky reader, immediately on opening their parcel, will hear the creak of a door, of an unoccupied room, in their very home ... followed by little footsteps.

Big horned salute to all who have enjoyed the film and boosted its signal so far. The makers, cast and crew took the last old God of the wood by the horns. Monumental achievement. Still in awe. #TheRitual @_WTennant @bruckmachina @BigRichFilms @JoeBarton_ @thebenlovett @netflix

The idea of a world without us in it, has been burrowing into my imagination since 'Lost Girl'. From my preoccupation with extinction, this bespoke collection of "derelictions" was distilled. 'Wyrd' will wriggle into print this Halloween in 4 formats. [HB from my webstore].

When I approached this remote cave, as if disturbed by the faint beat of my paddle, an unseen occupant flopped about inside. I judged it to be the size of a bull with appendages that slapped around the walls and ceiling. Back-paddled out, gibbering. The Bay provides and takes.

My infernal corner at Bristol Comic Con is up and dancing! I'm opposite the signing tables for the Game of Thrones actors. Have figured out my sales pitch: "While you wait for your signed photo, might I interest you in a book about cannabalism?"

During lockdown I started to drink cider again. Not sure I've touched it since my teens. Goes well with a book on the patio outside my office, in late afternoon sun, a little metal on the stereo. Local distilleries deliver it to your porch too! Right time to read The Stand too.

'Mother, Creator, Destroyer' inspired by The Vessel. An illustration by Devin Forst, an artist from Pennsylvania with an affecting style. I love it. Makes me think of an old book for children that should exist but doesn't. Ordered a print for my office wall. Links in thread:

While I worked last week, the girls built an effigy of a pagan god in the living room. Soon it will be take its place in the porch. I anticipate fewer trick or treaters this year. Those brave enough to ring the bell will not dare speak its name ... I kneel before it nightly.

I spent the second half of 2023 publishing, inc' new laminate hardcover editions of each Ritual Ltd title + the 4 formats for All the Fiends of Hell (pub April 2024). They're velvety, substantial in the hand. Available anywhere weird books are sold, inc' my webstore for signed.

I went to the chosen place at the correct time. After fasting and lengthy mental preparations to induce a particular awareness, I made ready to call out.

Fiends has clawed its way to #1 on one AMZ chart. Like an 80s metal record, it may only occupy top spot for a brief period. It's a first timer on 3 other charts too: Alien Invasion, Post-Apocalyptic, First Contact. I dig that. Saluting all who bought the new album/book! You rock!

I open Twitter and the first tweet I see is this one. All of the withered forms in my attic stood up to salute @bruckmachina and Keith Thompson with their spindly arms. I knelt.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! "The Ritual" at NETFLIX. Amazing and scary. With a beautiful creature designed by frequent collaborator Keith Thompson.

My old vinyl cases still deliver. I'm holding my first Sabbath record; bought for £1 from a kid at school in the early 80s. One of the first 5 metal records that began my collection; acquired after hearing 'Paranoid' on the 'Axe Attack' comp'. Smitten. #vinylcollection #Sabbath

If you've had a hound of a 2020, I extend my sympathy and empathy & hope some light is filtering onto your horizon. Let's all shoot-up the vaccine in 2021 & enjoy a massive bonfire of the vanities (using stupid ideas as kindling). Happy New Year & keep those horns raised!

Newborn from the neck up. Turkish barbers. Beard trimmed. Skull & neck close-shaved with a straight razor. Head & neck wrapped in scalding towels. Entire head moisturised, then oiled. First trip to a barbers in 20 yrs. Every nerve ending singing like a tenor. #turkishbarbers

Countdown to the Reddening. Published October 31st. "With the new ceiling of storm cloud, dusk had surely arrived at midday. Beneath the treetops the light thinned further. She needed a torch and fought a childish panic that the land was cursed in ways she’d never understand."
