Did you squeeze in a visit to Warhammer World while you were up there?

did you cut your thumb making a blood sacrifice to the screenwriting gods?
I am forever thankful for the royal court playwright’s podcast. Great questions, honest answers, always inspiring
I knew you had some kind of unfair advantage! Working on it…
Sadly I specifically told my year 9 IT teacher that I didn’t need to learn touch typing “because I’m definitely not going to be a writer”. Can confirm that my daily existence has been much easier and more productive since I learned to type with more than one finger a few years ago…
Got a few personal life concerns right now, so acknowledging that the world might end soon and I won’t have to solve anything is weirdly soothing
Worst thing is when it’s at 12.30 on a Friday. Whole week is a write off.
Trying to apply for arts council research and development for individuals fund and so far i've researched every corner of their broken labyrinth of a website and developed a deep resentment for it. So a successful round of r&d you could say.

also love the bunting
Genuinely and unironically, I love that we've finally made it through the "every movie is a Marvel" era and reached "every movie is an adaptation of two sentences Stephen King wrote on the back of a napkin while doing cocaine".
It’s the FINAL WEEKEND to support the Kickstarter to fund my new children’s picture book.
Please support if you can, every £ helps.
I only receive the funding if the campaign reaches 100%. If not, no card payments will be taken.

Drinking an ice cold pepsi because unlike coca cola, pepsi has definitely absolutely never done anything even remotely morally reprehensible. Mmm, a delicious glass of ethics.
Feral, bloodied, charging through a swirling blizzard...
Just some of the experiences I had while writing part of this book. It's my first contribution to the Wrath & Glory line, having had the honour of working with some true Long Fangs of TTRPG writing. I can't wait to get my claws into a copy.
This goes so hard. Epic work dude. I can't wait to have this cover on my shelf to commemorate my first writing contribution to 40k.
Cheese is the best thing you can do with milk, obviously. Whereas Cheese! (note the punctuation) is the best book you can read your kids. And now @thisisdouch.bsky.social is working on a sequel. Delicious! Pledge for a copy to delight your kids and/or spite a lactose intolerant nemesis.
My pal @thisisdouch.bsky.social is writing a sequel to his first picture book CHEESE! But he needs your help - yes, you!
Help back original, smart and funny kids' books. (Or we'll have to put up with celebs writing books called MR POO PANTS EATS BOGEY FARTS.)

giving work to comedy writers? In the UK? In this economy? Seems sus
By contrast, I recently started writing for TTRPGs and if I was getting £40 for 300 words I’d be laughing all the way to the (guarded by a dragon) bank.
Part of England’s problem might be that the flag is too easy to spray on things. Imagine if we had something closer to the Australian flag? I can’t see the racists taking the time to lay down a blue base coat before carefully spraying all those stars.
Travelling today while reading a Lovecraft story and I’ve just got to the reveal that the terrible dark thing at the heart of it all is happening *today*, but sure it’s fine, totally fine, not an omen of any sort.
Gross. I’ve not done the sleeper but having just aged out of my final railcard for the foreseeable, it’s £166 return 🙃
BBC News story headline that reads “Mission begins to save snails threatened by own beauty”. There’s an image of a snail with a red and yellow shell.

Writing my first RPG adventure. Made a typo while aiming for ‘he leaps forward with a savage howl’, which autocorrected to ‘he leaps forward with a sausage’. Sure, it changes the emphasis of the encounter… but I’m not 100% against it.
If I haven’t replied to your email, it’s not that I don’t like you. I haven’t actually received it. In fact, I would LOVE to hear from you.
Unless you’re Jason.
You know what you did, Jason.
So if you’ve emailed me and I haven’t replied, please message me on here or any other platform. (And if you *haven’t* tried to offer me work / no-strings-attached payment / a perilous quest into unknown realms, then perhaps you should?)
Friends, clients, would-be wealthy benefactors! It has come to my attention that some emails I’ve been sent have been mysteriously waylaid by the warp, en-route to my inbox, and I haven’t received them. It sounds like some made up bullsh1t, I know. But alas, I have proof.
