FYI, I'm no longer using this site regularly. You can catch up with me on Bluesky (same handle) or - for the moment - Instagram. Thanks for all the fish.
JUST A REMINDER that this place is now sadly dead to me. Come with me on insta (av_wilkes) and BSky (unheimlichmanvr) if you want to live deliciously, etc
Some of you already know that @CatCamacho1 and I are teaching some residential writing courses at @HawkwoodCFT next year! If you book between now and 6 Jan there's a 15% discount off "From Inspiration To First Chapter", so treat yourself to some creative time in January! 👀✒️🌲
I'm so THRILLED to announce a new project for me: next year I'll be tutoring a series of residential writing retreats at gorgeous @HawkwoodCFT with the awesome @CatCamacho1! 🤯✒️📚
I can't believe how lucky I am, and can't WAIT to get started with the January course!
And guess who's the Wednesday evening guest speaker on the January course? Only @EmiliaHartBooks, smash hit author of WEYWARD and upcoming THE SIRENS, to speak about her publication journey and writing tips! 💚🩷
Look, who amongst us can be on all 1727281 social media platforms simultaneously? But a few days on 🔵🌦️ has helped me see how awful this place has got from a user experience POV. I don't want to be driven out, but damn if it isn't more pleasant elsewhere...

Post-Martinmas, the sun starts to weaken till it no longer has the power to cause spirits not to walk in daylight. Shadows pool and plot. Old paths fill with whispers. Hedgerows grow new eyes and sometimes, new mouths for growling. – #DAKilroy, 1982
I really loved this pacey, snow-drenched thriller!

Oh noooo. We all loved him so much Tony Todd- Tony Todd- Tony Todd. Come bank anytime. Until then RIP Candyman xx
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are devastated to learn that Tony Todd, the horror legend who unforgettably played the title character in the Candyman franchise, has passed away at the age of 69: bloody-disgusting.com/movie/…
Tonight's film was IN A VIOLENT NATURE: absolutely blown away by this love letter to the slasher genre. Such a fresh approach. Stark and jarring.

Ally's paperback release was the same day as the Big Event so now I'm boosting it because this book is fabulous and so is she 🖤

Short story acceptance tweet! I feel I've really levelled up my short story game in 2024 and I'm so glad
