Missed my free promotion of 'Dark Magic'? You can still pick it up for just £1.99.
* It's short
* It's funny (and some people say scary too)
* It's just £1.99

KILLER ROBOT NINJA SEX DOLLS: an apology and a clarification.

The book features four sex dolls. There are ninjas. There are robots. There is, however, only one killer robot ninja sex doll.

If you find the plural misleading, I am sorry.

At our party for ‘Killer Robot Ninja Sex Dolls’ one person remembered that it’s about a killer robot. The ninja sex dolls are not really the point. (It makes a great title though.)

My Substack this week is about Halloween and also my new book, 'Killer Robot Ninja Sex Dolls'. Does contain Killer Robots and Ninja. Disappointingly light on Sex Dolls, though they do definitely feature. https://t.co/r96tmE2V66

Today is your last chance to get 'Something Wicked' for £1.99!

This week’s post is mainly about Hougoumont but there’s also a reminder about the offer on ‘Something Wicked’. You’ve missed the 99p offer by now but you still have a couple of days at £1.99 before the price reverts to normal on Wednesday.

My 99p offer on 'Something Wicked' ended yesterday because offers on vampire books vanish after Halloween. (Honestly, it's a well-known fact.) BUT you can still get it for £1.99 until Tuesday. Then it's back to normal.

It’s Halloween! So it’s your last chance to get ‘Something Wicked’ for just 99p.

[Tom Williams @TomCW99]

The 99p offer on 'Something Wicked' (the first of my Galbraith & Pole books) ends on Halloween. That's tomorrow!
Get it today.
https://t.co/3eL4hsLwSr

[Tom Williams @TomCW99]

Get the first Galbraith & Pole adventure ahead of the latest coming out on 7 November: a simple tale of vampires and graveyards and the importance of tango to Life, Undeath and Everything. Until Halloween, you can buy 'Something Wicked' for just 99p.

Grammar Errors You May Be Making Right Now and How to Stop. Please. | @BadRedheadMedia https://t.co/Q4lqVF9UP2

Twenty-five word crimes that make writers twitch...

Okay, I admit it; I have grammar pet peeves. Come on, we all do. We may pretend we’re far too evolved to judge other people’s word choices, but then someone writes alot, and suddenly we’re pacing around the house muttering, “It’s two words. TWO, dammit.”

Might just be me.

So, with affection and a tiny speck of judgment, let’s discuss a few repeat offenders.

1. Alot

No. It’s a lot. Two words.

You wouldn’t write alittle, abunch, or awholemess. Please stop making a and lot live together before they’re ready.

2. For Free

You received the book free. You downloaded the guide free. You attended the event free of charge.

You can say you received it for free; that phrase is grammatically acceptable, widely used, and understood. I still don’t like it. My dad hates this phrase (former retail guy), and he’s 89, so we listen.

Not every pet peeve is a rule. Sometimes a collection of perfectly innocent words irritates us by simply existing, kinda like your little brother.
3. People Who, Things That

He is the author who wrote the book. This is the book that ruined my sleep last night.

Who is preferred for people, while that is more commonly used for things. Using that for a person isn’t always grammatically wrong, but who usually sounds more natural.

Your editor is a person who catches mistakes, not a helpful household appliance that lives inside your laptop, no matter how convenient. Editors need rest, too.

Animals deserve flexibility. If Pip knocks a glass off the counter while staring directly into my soul, he is absolutely a who because I want to, ya know, live.

@KoalaQuillHQ I understand that but there are limits. The romance is foreseeable but the rest makes very little sense if you think about it.

Three mystery thrillers reviewed plus a plug for my own tongue-in-cheek contribution to the genre.
