Forgettings

I mean to update this blog more regularly but my brain space is taken up by too many other things!

My sequel to The Darkest Woods, titled Code of Retribution, came out at the beginning of July, then near the end I published my first children’s book, titled The Learned Cat. A fully illustrated poem for lovers of books and cats alike! All books are available on Amazon, though unlike the others The Learned Cat is only available in paperback, not ebook.

I’ve been writing a lot of poetry recently. Not as many about autumn as usual but some, I confess. I just love autumn!!!!!

In addition, I’ve recently updated my website with various things including more art for sale. I went through a period of discovering oil pastels and playing with those, then I put them down for a couple of months, but I did do a new piece today (Carloway Broch) which I have put up in my traditional art store.

I’ve decided I need to start redrafting my next book. It’s not part of the Machinations series, but something wholly different. I just hope people enjoy it too when it’s ready to be released to the world.

Stay safe, and be kind.

Introduction!

I decided that having a website is not a bad idea, so here I am!

I’m a Scottish author, poet, and artist living in Warwickshire, England. I have two books out: a book of poetry, titled ‘Songs of Kindness’, and a technothriller novella, titled ‘The Darkest Woods’. Both are available on Amazon. The sequel to my novella will hopefully be out this year, so keep an eye out for THAT announcement.

My Linktree, with links to all my socials and published works, can be found here.

I have a cat called Jimmy, who is the light of my life. He’s a rescue boy, now living his best life off of the fat of the land. He is sometimes a bit of a rascal, but that’s okay. He’s allowed.

I have a Twitch account where I started streaming Resident evil 4, one of my favourite games of all time ever, but unfortunately my audio is TERRIBLE in the first couple of streams so I might start from the beginning. If you want to watch and hear me yelling at Leon, enemies, and myself, feel free to either tune in live or catch up on my free members Patreon.

Behold: a Jimbles.

Jimmy, a black cat with a white tuft of hair under his chin, sits regally on a sage green armchair. His cheeks are round, and he’s about as fluffy as a shorthair gets. His eyes are yellow with black slitted pupils, and he’s just really handsome.
