Marching on.

Blimey! March already! It'll be Christmas again before you know it.
It's been a busy few months. Lots of scribbly stuff and the eating of pizzas keeping me more or less out of trouble.
I had the good fortune to catch Geoff Holder on Wednesday, who was doing a promotion of his new book, 'The Guide to Mysterious Aberdeen'. A jolly nice chap full of interesting stories and info who also led a short tour of Old Aberdeen, which is where I used to live! It's shocking how much we don't know about our own back yards!
After that, it was a much needed trip to the pub followed by dinner at my favourite Tuscan restaurant. A most splendid break from scribbling!

Other quiveringly exciting news, is that Cubicle 7 are taking advanced orders for Dark Harvest: Legacy of Frankenstein - in fact, you can get your grubby little mitts on one right here!

Not only that, but we shall be shamelessly promoting it at Conpulsion in Edinburgh which takes place from March 25th - 27th! So, if you're in the area drop by and say hello. And if you're not in the area - then get your fuzzy little butts there by any means possible!

It's not April Yet!

All morning I've been convinced that it's April 1st today, which of course, it isn't.

Had a great weekend. Went to Conpulsion in Edinburgh, car didn't break down, ate a years worth of junk food and met up with loads of lovely folks who I haven't seen in far too long a time.
Nearly fell over at the prices of liquidy delights. Getting a round and still having change took a bit of getting used to I can tell you. Obviously I had to take full advantage of the situation and even partook of a couple of delightful cocktails. Mmmmm cocktails....

Lot's of Dark Harvest posters were given out, so the publicity monster has now been unleashed and will hopefully trample all over every major city, trashing every high rise building and bridge in it's path... sorry, getting carried away a tad there.

You can take a sneaky peak at the web site here.
Go on - you know you want to...

Other news is that I've been shortlisted for Best Script (Short film) at the End of the Pier International Film Festival! A lovely and unexpected boost!

Script Frenzy.

It's that time of year again for Script Frenzy. For anyone not aware of what it is, basically, during April, from the 1st to the 30th you aim to write a 100 page script. There are no prizes, just a splendid motivation for like minded folks to just get down and write.
If this tickles your fancy, go and take a scoobies over at their web site - but you'll have to hurry - it all kicks off on Monday.

I was too late finding out about it last year, however, I might just have a bash this time.
If anything, it'll be a good focus. Not sure what I'll do though - I've got several ideas, and it really is about time I settled down to do a feature.

In other news, I finished the Dark Harvest Website yesterday, barring the odd tweak or two. Tis an exciting project! Details will follow at the weekend when it gets pre-launched!

Speaking of which, I'm heading off to Edinburgh on Saturday! Yay!
