Very unusually for me, I wrote a complete piece of #flashfiction in my head as I drifted off to sleep last night, but was too tired to write it down... And when I woke up this morning I was able to remember it and write it on my phone. nickguthrie.co.uk/mailinglist.... #mystery #CrimeFiction

Oh dear. I've reached the stage of tiredness where I try to use the mouse pointer to flick a bit of fluff off the screen... #amwriting
I always have a point in my plot notes for a novel that says something like "Stuff happens". Thankfully, I'm past that point in the 2nd DI Bolam novel now, and stuff did happen. Which is nice. #amwriting #mystery #crimefiction #MysteryFiction #PoliceProcedural

I've just made my fourth story sale to Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine: "Silent Partner". Introducing DC Charlie Tunstall, probably the last person you'd want to be first on the scene of a murder... #mystery #CrimeFiction #MysteryFiction #PoliceProcedural
Just passed 35k words on the second DI Bolam novel. It's starting to feel like a real book! #amwriting #crimefiction #slowly
If they've sent that many, they must be contributors' copies, right? #mystery #CrimeFiction #MysteryFiction #ShortFiction @eqmm.bsky.social
