In the 90s, I worked in a London newsagent. One regular customer was a friendly, grey-haired man who came in for his newspaper.
My manager said, 'Watch him. He was in the Krays.'
Read how that influenced my Christmas thriller No Way To Live on my blog.

No Way To Live is a favorite of mine.
My interview for Quiet Writers is on their Substack.
We discussed influences, favourite books and why nobody in No Way To Live is either all good or all bad.

Billie Brinkley’s empire is crumbling.
The only man she trusts has fled.
If he knew the truth, he might have stuck around.

Here’s the incomparable Dave Allen discussing how to teach your child the time. It’s one of the most perfectly delivered stand up comedy performances of all time. Absolute genius.

"First Blood" was released on this day in 1982. Tremendous adaptation of David Morrell's bestselling novel (my favorite book of all-time) from director Ted Kotcheff and co-writer Sylvester Stallone revolutionized action films.
Highlights: Sylvester Stallone's incredible performance (both physical and emotional) remains a career benchmark; Jerry Goldsmith's astonishing and influential score is a powerhouse achievement.
While it received a mixed critical reception, "First Blood" was a global box office success, grossing nearly 10 times its production budget.
Among my ten favorite films of the 80s.

Some really talented writers here. And, uh, me.
Give it a read!
I got to speak to a dream team of crime writers about what they preferred writing, novels or short stories. Seriously, take a gander at these BOLDFACE NAMES and their opinions in my new @CrimeReads piece.

"Re-reading the novel to write this review, this was the groove I found within Dale’s delightful prose. It’s rhythmic like a beat poet knocking on a bongo, except it makes more sense, and you can follow the storyline. It’s also really funny and subversive."
Available at the Zon.

For the record, my top 3, would probably include
Bridge of Spies, The Bourne Identity and Casino Royale, but not necessarily in that order.

Today is National Get Funky Day, so here’s a heads-up on the OG of Podcasts for Writers, founded in 2008 with over 400 episodes. The Funky Writer Show hosted by Robert Batista. Here’s to the next 400!
I'm supposed to be publishing Good Deeds and Charity, the 2nd book in my Angel of the South series. But I started writing the first draft of Book 4 and need to power on through.
Book 1 is really good though, and it's set over Christmas!
