I’m really enjoying the new @DisneyPlus Star Wars #SkeletonCrew series. It’s exactly my sort of adventure. What surprised me the most is the number of similarities with my own #Spacejackers novels! Definitely worth a watch if you like a gritty space pirate tale! @BloomsburyBooks

All 3 books spotted in Ludlow! #Spacejackers

@Voltage_XZX Thanks @voltage_xzx and sorry it’s taking so long. I can confirm that I’m working on a completely new novel and it’s not Spacejackers 4. It’s slow progress, but getting there!

[Huw Powell @Spacejackers]

Finally … it has taken me 4 months to write the next 10k words of the new novel (code name AK). I’ve just not had time to write this year. It feels good to have cracked the 20k word milestone! #amwriting

[Huw Powell @Spacejackers]

@skinnerwrites Happy Birthday! Hope all is well. You know what they say, red sky in the morning … shepherds get drunk!

[Huw Powell @Spacejackers]

I met some old work friends for drinks last night and haven’t laughed so much in ages. One told me that I’m still the best manager she’s ever had. Another told me that her son and his friends have read all 3 of my books so often that the covers are worn out. It made my day!

@garethlpowell @Waterstones Living the dream. Your 18-year-old self would be so jealous :-)
