It's been a wonderful start to the year. The Pollutant Speaks on the BSFA longlist, hopefully gets on the Hugos longlist, and has connected me with some wonderful readers all over the globe. 🙏 #bsfa #hugoawards 🚀 #bookstagram #sciencefiction @goodreads

@deathbybadger Somebody sent me a fragment of this as we're editing a series of Byron books. It's taken me a little work and the help of bar_barrett on Instagram to track you here. Much love and respect! Just finished editing the chapter on Southey's allegations of incest on 'that' weekend.

In fairness this was a great idea that I stole! 📚📚📚

I gave away 6 copies to Little Libraries around London. I know some of them have been snatched up, but haven’t been back to check them all yet.

A year ago today (Sept 1st) I published my debut scifi novel, GENEFIRE.

So today, I thought it would be good to reflect on the last year, and see where this has led me. One step further than I had ever been before

@bernardtjoy "From the wash the laundress sends..." By A.E. Housman.

I don't have a laundress and I can't explain why, but it's stuck in me.

My best effort so far, Battlestar GalacTacos.

@RomGothSam I mean, let's be clear: moaning about your institution is basically compulsory.

@jimiflanUK @Rainmaker1973 Let me know when you're next up this way for 🍻🍺

[James Flanagan @jimiflanUK]

@Rainmaker1973 @cannotbegrouped this reminds me of a scene in The Pollutant Speaks

[Alex Cochran @cannotbegrouped]

@jimiflanUK @Rainmaker1973 That guy looks much calmer! He hasn't got meteorites to dead with as well though 😆

[Alex Cochran @cannotbegrouped]

@brentyeaaa If you're interested in Sci-fi maybe take a look at The Pollutant Speaks?

[Alex Cochran @cannotbegrouped]

Okay, that's quite good company. That is the hardback for £15 by the way!
