Save The Prince Charles Cinema
The future of the iconic Prince Charles Cinema in London’s West End is under serious threat! We are beyond disappointed that our landlords, Zedwell LSQ Ltd and their ultimate parent company Criterion...

Had a jump scare earlier when I half-turned on the upstairs landing to see what looked like a demon ascending the stairs in the dark* *before realising it was this pillock coming to look for me with his sticky-up ears and weird almost bipedal upright walking thing
Had the ol’ internal pedant grumbling a few times (e.g. a Catholic priest not knowing the difference between a cross and a crucifix) but The Borderlands was thoroughly enjoyable and harrowing, with excellent chemistry between the two chief characters and some slow burn scares
Almost 50 people have added DEATH IN ITS MANY FORMS on Goodreads! It's moments like these that really help bolster a self-publishing author doing it all solo. It feels like, despite everything going on and all the other books coming out, somehow readers still heard me and took a sec to show support🥹
Other pianists are available, but only if you mean Sviatoslav Richter.
Don’t know about writer’s block but I’m experiencing - not for the first time - this thing where I have to get two stories I’m not that invested in out of the way before starting on the two or three I really *do* want to write. What mental illness is this?
Icarus must have been a nightmare to parent
Herbert James Draper — The Lament for Icarus 1898 (Tate Britain)
For fans of liminal spaces (and just fucking great writing)
7. ‘The Presence Chamber’: “I was astonished to discover that a palace bigger and more gorgeous than Hampton Court had once existed but was allowed to be demolished, with its constituent parts sold off as building materials...” precastreinforced.co.uk/2026/05/03/7...
‘Starc takes 10 wickets as Australia thrash Bangladesh’
OH went to a Tina Turner tribute show last night. Tina dragged a lad out of the audience and made him sit in a chair while she, ahem, performed Private Dancer ‘Did he get to see her Proud Mary,’ says I, a great wag* *Her Nutbush City Limits might have been better 🫠
Holy moly, thought I was in for some straight-up Amicus fun but Madhouse (Jim Clark, 1974) is so much more than just that. Meta af, genuinely horrific in places and a highly effective whodunnit. Love Vincent Price in everything but here he’s at his very best, with Cush as a tremendous foil. So good
when i die I want to be buried in rollerskates so that if zombie shit happens I'll be the funniest undead to watch

Not me wondering how often Caroline Munro burst out of those almost-not-there costumes during the filming of The Golden Voyage of Sinbad (Hessler, 1974)
In conversation with my 10yr old nibling yesterday evening, she was utterly dismissive of LLM stuff. Why, she asked, would she want it when she can write her own stories and draw her own pictures? Joyous to hear.
Prince Harry has been on our street asking if anyone needs any odd jobs or grass cutting doing
This is astonishing on so many levels
Here goes a story from the vault: In 1987, blood started to seep from the walls of a home owned by a Black family, amid racial turmoil in ATL. This is an unsolved mystery to this day; the APD (or the family) didn't even want to talk to me about the case. www.trulyadventure.us/blood-house
An enormous achievement to write a whole ass book; even more so when all the stories in Jamie’s collection are absolute HUMDINGERS
‘Mon dieu. ‘Astings, Miss Limon: what is the meaning of this’ ‘Terribly sorry, Poirot old boy, Miss Lemon was saying it’d been an awfully long time since she’d had a good seeing to, so I thought “Dash it all, now’s as good a time as any”’
I like the feel of this England team. The outright arrogance of the Bazball era seems to have dissipated

Posted this on IG and bears repeating here - @raynewman.bsky.social 's been carving out the "Brutalist ghost story" microgenre for the last several years so just wanted to draw attention to these great anthologies.
