“[T]he moments between the moments where teabags turn heavy and cold, where real stories gather under the stories we tell, and are stranger – The Bygones is a dance down that street, so present and bright you can feel it underfoot.” - DBC pierre

Here's a bit of a thread of some recent publications, forthcoming ones and events for anyone who's interested. All of them are well worth a look regardless of my work, fantastic creative spaces that it's been a pleasure to contribute to ✌️

Good morning. Today we're starting our very own Podcast. Kevin Boniface is orchestrating. The Two Kevin's and The Last King of Elmet! Time for a brew.

Jim is a big talent that deserves the biggest platform going.

Jim Gibson is one of the best writers around. If you haven't read his work it's well worth checking out✨🙃

Other than that, you can still get my debut small story collection, The Bygones, from @TangerinePress and the single story, A Symbol of a Memory, from @nightjarpress. Two amazingly unique publishers in their different ways.

Night Terrors is the latest anthology by @AcidBathPub. This book indulges in a myriad of depraved horrors & libertine pleasures stemming from the theme of night life.

I've had stories in the latest 2 issues of Spinners by @5767production, published just before Christmas. This mag has filled a space in the lit world left by mags such as Joe England's PUSH and has been a relentless and wonderful surprise this year. https://t.co/U1vx3ujK29

As well as being a night for stories and discussion, this event will be Neil Campbell's first outing with his latest collection, Saying Dirty Things in Regional Accents, which I can't wait to read. It was a pleasure to be asked back to Blackwells in Manchester for this event.

The Scumrag is a literary newspaper championing D.I.Y underground poetry, literature, art, and the small press. Martin Appleby is the long time creator of Paper & Ink zine and is a stalwart of the literary underground. https://t.co/C6324DdmV1

Grass is a magazine of working class literature and art, edited by @TommySissons. A beautiful publication that questions perceptions of WC people. My story 'Quad', originally longlisted for the Desperate Literature prize features in the latest issue. https://t.co/6OmCYSlvHs

. @DeepSNAKESai put together this amazing feat of AI collaboration on the theme of techno poetry and I was happy to have The Greenhouse included. Although this poem features at 31 mins in, the whole thing is a batshit crazy and a mindbendingly good watch. https://t.co/OXyR80fCxR

Can't wait to be part of the Working Class Stories event at @BlackwellsMcr with @neilcambers and @WDeanRichards in March. If anyone's around, nip down for a chat ✌️

Thanks to @RossBits for his praise over on the Bluesky place ✌️ The Bygones is still available via @TangerinePress for those of you not yet to visit.

You can pre-order Grass magazine now, a beautiful magazine of working class literature and art. My story 'Quad' is included which was long listed for the @DesperateLit prize last year and is it's first outing. Grab one while they're hot ✌️ https://t.co/l0fZQGD0Tc
