Briefly returning to Twitter to say thanks for all the kind words about the Kindle Storyteller Award. A great evening, with quite a camp photo. And this morning, the brilliant @MrNishKumar made my daughter’s year by letting me take a photo of him to send her. Cheers, Nish!

Well, this is it. I've come close a few times, but I'm finally quitting this platform, which I once loved, but is now a godforsaken clusterfuck of joyless shithousery. Find me on Facebook at facebook.com/jdkirkbooks. Keeping account here open so nobody nicks my username! Byeee! x

I told myself I’m not going to spend any more money on #LEGO this year, but have just discovered that I have enough VIP points saved up to buy the Jaws set, so feel it would be rude not to exploit this glaring loophole.

After #Stateside I’m sorely tempted to write this 80s set pulp noir style Alvin King prequel. Cover design by the brilliant Kip Ayers.

Loaded with painkillers following my dental emergency, some serious hayfever made me reach for my eye drops. It did not go well.

Even though I have Kindle unlimited, I just bought all of the Hoon books by @JDKirkBooks. I bought them just in case. But I don't know in case of what?? What I do know is that Stateside made me laugh like a fucking drain. Iris running away from the passport just sent me.

Just been to cast my vote. Last I saw, the Tories were polling at less than 1% of the vote in my area, which fair warms the cockles of me old heart. #GeneralElection2024

I'm not going to tell you how to vote, only your own conscience can guide that. But I, for one, am looking forward to seeing the most wretched, corrupt, thieving, conniving, hapless, clueless, dangerous government of my lifetime booted squarely up the arse and out of power. #Vote
