Just finished this wonderful new series What it Feels Like for a Girl. This was the most important series I've seen this year. Flawless, raw, heartfelt, honest and all the above buzz words. It is must see viewing and is exactly the kind of tv series that needs commissioned.

My book, The Ghost Merchant is due out 7th July. So I will be answering some questions on here about the process of creating the book, the world and the characters. The first question was - What inspired you to write the book in the very beginning?

Disability benefit cuts to hit 700,000 families already in poverty, DWP forecasts show Internal government forecasts obtained by the Guardian reveal ‘truly shocking’ effects of planned cuts

Keir Starmer's disability benefit cuts will hit 700,000 families already living in poverty, internal government figures show.

This is in addition to the 250,000 people, who the DWP's own impact assessment suggests will be newly driven into poverty by the cuts

I have ebook, audiobook & paperback(uk only) editions available. Feel free to share this post to anyone you think might enjoy the book! #booksky

Thanks for the hint, I was seconds away from liking this post but thought I'd give a comment instead!

Haven't done any writing for around a month since finishing my latest manuscript and it feels really odd. I have no current ideas in my head for my next book.

I've got 2 finished, 1 ready for beta readers but this is a scary feeling.

Focusing on reading indie books while I wait for inspiration.

Cries in UK. 5 of my books are on there when I looked it up!

As a huge FRINGE fan I was so excitement when I saw him!

I've just finished one that is around 100k, my longest yet and wow people do not warn you about how long and hard the re-reads and edits are. It takes SO long to get through! 😅

Please take a look at my store if you are interested as some offers are currently live online for the launch and the indie spring event I am taking part in over this weekend.

More & more readers have been looking for alternatives to Amazon & after some research, I think ko-fi is going to be the best option for this. Using my store also allows me to see more commission from a sale than Amazon would ever allow, so it is also helping me to keep writing and creating.

Little announcement today for world book day.

I am opening up my books to be sold beyond Amazon. This means you can use my ko-fo store to get direct eBook files for all my books and also order signed editions from myself as well. (signed paperbacks are currently UK only sadly.) #booksky

James what is going on with today's hairstyle?

4 months until The Ghost Merchant is released & today I don't only have a new cover to show off, but also some information about where the book is set! Swipe through all the pics to get the info and keep an eye out on my profile, as I will soon be looking for some advance readers before release!

I love that feeling when you think "omg I've created a story with no plotholes in a first draft" only to re read something in like chapter 4 that blows the entire plot apart 😅

I've got a 200 year old ghost cat called Wilson in mine. He spends most of the novel sleeping on a cushion, eating or being a comfort for the cast of characters.

My father and also brother said to me the other day Putin is great and Russia is thriving and the people there are living a better life. I was gobsmacked at their views. My dad used to be a Corbin supporter ffs. I am so scared at how they have been brainwashed over the past few years.💔

It's one of my favourite new shows. Although I watched s1 and 2 back to back and the wait for s3 has been painful. I think it's great and the cast are brilliant. I literally have nothing bad to say about it.

I see lots of Trump voters have reached the fuck around, find out stage already. That didn't take long. 🤣 voters regret is strong.

Only me who thinks he's been filming Celebrity Traitors UK? 🤔

I need to know if this game is any good cause it kinda looked fun.

About to watch the final two episodes of Big Boys and don't think I'm ready. 😭

These % are helping me choose where to move to next because those UK numbers are depressing.

Keep those drops coming!

I really really want to read The Boy I Love. Heard some great things about it.

I don't have a new book to plug right now, but I wanted to say I'm so glad to see your profile back on my feed! Welcome back!

Finished the first draft for my next novel today, and it feels great reaching this point. There is still lots to do before it'll be anywhere near ready, but I'm celebrating. #writingcommunity

great you are actually publishing this kind of stuff when others don't, but that ultra 4k image of Farage when I opened the article was a jump scare!
