1/7 Some writing experts swear by daily discipline combining routine with variety. I hope different pubs count - this is me with 15 years' writing output last Thursday in the legendary Brunel in Rotherhithe (SE London: Mayflower country to Americans). Let's take a walk ... @eyebooks.bsky.social

2/7 ... the even more legendary Ship and Whale in Surrey Docks (Canada Water to the literati), and superwoman manager Basia, on Friday. Check my other posts to find out about The Blindspot, published by @eyebooks.bsky.social - I'll walk you through the rest pointing out which ones were with them ...

4/7 ... then my first novel, a farce set in a business school as the world stumbles into the global financial crisis (remember that?). Published by @eyebooks.bsky.social, it includes what I claim is the most truthful romantic scene ever written ...

5/7 ... and so to a world of lies, and novel 2, another with @eyebooks.bsky.social Worst moment: the day the title and dedication came to me, the assassination of Jo Cox MP. Best moments: generous praise from Chris Mullin and Matthew d'Ancona. In the meantime the world got worse ...

7/7 ... in 2021 'Elites' is published by @eyebooks.bsky.social The late Gareth Jones, a much esteemed management thinker, made time for me and the book, and @financialtimes.com came up with 'profound, subversive and often very funny' - which I'll always treasure. Next stop: 'The Blindspot'.

Not just Binface / Farage ... 'The Blindspot' from @eyebooks.bsky.social analyses #power as #humanchess. It says the first power-literate generation is coming and joins up the Death Star canteen sketch, the Post Office Horizon scandal and @bellingcat.com. #lifeskills #hope

Paul lives quietly in a northern town. By day he works in a café. By night he retreats into his graphic novel, using art to contain memories he has spent years trying to bury.
