There's a problem with the way people watch films right now. They're too elitist. Remember the 80's? All those hilarious action films created as vehicles for people like Stallone, Van Damme, Lundgren? Didn't you enjoy watching them? Sure, they were crap, but they were fun, … Continue reading Craptastic – A Manifesto.
Dreamtime – The Men in Black Hoods (Part 1)
Been a while since I've had a dream worth writing down, but I had a proper awesome one last night that I thought I'd share with you all. As usual with my dream stories, this is more or less what happened. Naturally, some details are … Continue reading Dreamtime – The Men in Black Hoods (Part 1)
The thing about bears…
This certainly isn't the norm.
Novel 2
I've already finished one novel which is currently languishing on agents' desks across the country, but I felt that it was about time I started the second. Very few people have seen the first book (Diplomancer) yet, but don't worry, you don't need to have … Continue reading Novel 2
Not a Story – Left 4 Dead Impressions
There's not really much that hasn't already been said about Left 4 Dead, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to talk about it. I went to the PC Gamer Showdown largely because I knew that Left 4 Dead would be there and, I kid … Continue reading Not a Story – Left 4 Dead Impressions

It didn't last too long anyway so that's something. … Continue reading (Untitled Timetravel Project) – Part 2
SOMETHING NEW! – (Untitled Timetravel Project) – Part 1
Yes, I'm back to writing something again. Book's done and dusted, just waiting to hand it in, so while I do that I figured I should get back into doing my short stories. Graham Enoch is still on hold, primarily because I lost my train … Continue reading SOMETHING NEW! – (Untitled Timetravel Project) – Part 1
Game Diary: Evil Genius – Part 1
The Poisoned Sponge's recent effort into chronicling his game of Zafehouse got me thinking. It's been a long time since I did something similar, since the communal game of Dwarf Fortress to be exact. I figured it was about time I had another shot at … Continue reading Game Diary: Evil Genius – Part 1
