Been away for a long while. things were good but I've been cut off from a med that helped me keep my weight down and moderate my drinking. now I've put on 4 stone again and resumed drinking too much. trying to not drink in November. I still have to take clients out which is a ball ache.
my writing is still keeping from the end times. each time I get a review or a download helps me. ridiculous I know but it's true. pity the reader like the violent stuff of mine which is hard to write (as in takes it out of me). I wrote YA novel as a palette cleanser and I have sold 1 copy.
thanks for listening.
also i still refuse to capitalize (only do so in books and even then under protest)

I boycotted Solo (which I fully intended to see at the cinema and ultimately enjoyed when i leeched of friends DVD) because I loathed TLJ (I mean properly Loathed)...not only was I Bored in the cinema but the whole casino thing I felt was an insult to me as a fan.

so I can not pay money for 9...call me a man-boy or an entitled child but there it is.

but the Mandalorian looks good but I will buy on DVD because there are tooooooooo many subscription services as there is and I'm skint as fook because I invest all my spare dosh in buying tables at conventions to promote my books.

I tired at book 3 but have 4-5 waiting for me to read...i enjoyed it but i thought the female character too interchangeable for my liking and the whole (insert the nun religion thing here trials) a bit dull and over convoluted.

I enjoyed alien 3, thought it was interesting and liked that Ripley died. the disappearing McGann confused me but I thought it was a return to its roots after the gun go of aliens (which I liked BTW)

I hate hyperbole...' DESTROYS' effectively means 'eloquently rebuts differing opinion' but I guess nobody clicks on that...

Hey, sorry I sometimes lose the plot on here...it helps to vent (even though I am mortified the next day). Thanks for your patience.

AHH, unfortunately, I'm still hanging on (harder every day). I love that all my sales are in the US even though people in the UK (Friends!?!? allegedly) claim to have bought it. I earn FECK ALL from my RL job...awful.

just a quick note wishing you all a Merry Christmas/ Xmas/Holiday/whatever.

take it easy, don't let anyone get you down and enjoy it.
if you hate Christmas etc then it'll be over before you know it.

You might know I dabble in the auld writing...

Last year an extreme horror publisher announced an open submission period.
I chanced my arm and wrote something quite despicable.
it's totally out of character but I missed the deadline.....
so as I'd spent a traumatic year on it I put it on Amazon, as people seem to like this stuff (or so I think judging on the success of others in the genre).

it is VERY harsh..and I still struggle to reconcile where it all came from...
If anyone would like to download the sample they can do so here.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Wrong-Place-Time-violent-thriller-ebook/dp/B07KLPTQ6Y/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1543601295&sr=8-2&keywords=tom+stearns

if they wish to spend hard earned cash to buy it then I am more grateful than you could possibly imagine.
if you're a fan of this type of thing then drop me a PM with what you think and please leave a review. this is new to me I am concerned I've gone too far.
