Projects & the hermit dream
I’m behind on Oblivion – Netherdei #3, but writing is well underway now and it’s good to be at it again. I’ve been dealing with skin cancer – hopefully caught early enough and not for anyone to worry about – which made me realise what an absolute idiot I was in my twenties, lying in…
50 Shades of Ever Winter
I finally met Victoria Gerken of Podium Entertainment, after years of engaging with her on email, insta, zoom and all-else. After enjoying her company through seminars on how robots will ultimately rise up and destroy us, I was in the audience for the Podium-sponsored panel on the future of audiobooks – and it was at…

The darkest core – cover reveal
‘A thing of beauty.’ I’m extremely proud to reveal the cover for Netherdei #2 – The Darkest Core. This brilliant artwork is once again the creation of Seoul-based artist Mansik Yang (Yam), who was responsible for the gnarly cover for The Shadow Sect. The colours of the first book of this series hinted at the…
OLD MUMBLECRUST / influencing the author – with great audio!
This lovely pro narrator is Joe Jameson, who has been busy narrating Netherdei book two, The Darkest Core. Joe has been asking lots of questions about characters, dialogue and things in a novel that you take for granted when narration comes into play. I admitted something to Joe this week that I thought I’d share…
netherdei book II cometh
The recording of The Darkest Core – Netherdei #2 will touch down soon and once again I have been lucky enough to secure the legend that is Joe Jameson for my narration. Joe is in high demand, having narrated books for fantasy greats Mark Lawrence, Leigh Bardugo, Sebastien de Castell and of course the brilliant…
The Darkest CORE
Netherdei Book 2 release update. The Count of Monte Cristo waited a long time for his revenge and I feel that my readers have been just as patient with the follow-up to The Shadow Sect – Netherdei #1. Last year was very tough for me personally. Serious illness in my family – and other things…
positively insane stuff & Audio.
It’s been a huge lift for me to see that The Shadow Sect was selected by Audible as a Deal of the Day, which has seen it leap back up the charts to #3 in Audible globally and #13 in US Amazon (all genres). I’m going to bed now and don’t expect it to climb…
Unexpected wins, imposter syndrome & whoop there it is!
There is a glass award on my bookshelf of dreams, for a short story I wrote in 2017. I wrote that story under a pen-name, because I was trying to build my confidence as a writer and work out what genre suited me. The award night was to be held in an old London cinema,…

https://media.tenor.com/images/a6ab571841a6fc62f636ba5060161060/tenor.gif Next Sunday 19th December is the annual SOVAS Voice Arts Awards, being held at the Guggenheim in New York. It felt so cool to write that bit. ‘Oooh, Guggenheim!’ I’d like to think it’s just Covid that has restricted my travel to these prestigious awards, but being honest, I’m just not important enough -…
