      Greetings from the edge, So, I have been very busy. I have started to get into a new skirmish-based tabletop wargame called Death Fields Arena, brought to us by Wargames Atlantic. It’s free to play, and the models won’t set you back a week’s petrol money. You can be a cool kid and download the…

    • The Delayed Horror Effect

      Greetings from the edge, I spend an unreasonable amount of time watching horror movies, reading about them, and consuming more horror literature than is technically advisable. If there’s enough time left in the day, I’ll play a horror TTRPG or read a horror comic too. The reason I bring this up is simple: I know…

      Greetings from the furnace, The hottest place in the solar system is not, as you might have understandably believed, Venus, which, although further from the Sun than Mercury, is so unspeakably hot that you can melt lead on its surface. No, the hottest place in the known solar system is in fact a broom cupboard…

    • Five Songs I Absolutely Butchered (And Improved, Frankly)

      Greetings from the edge, In the words of Joan Jett, when she was still ripping it up with the Blackhearts, I Love Rock ‘ n ‘ Roll. I was born at exactly the right time to have the very best music assail my ears and permanently rewrite my eager brain, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Nirvana, Guns…

    • Friday 24th April 2026

      Greetings from the edge, I have decided to take a week (and a bit) off from blogging every day. I’m still working out what I want to do with the site in general and the blog section in particular. I’ll still be working on articles and content, but I won’t be posting daily updates for…

    • The Graveyard of Bad Ideas

      23-04-26 Greetings from the edge, I’ve been digging through my deepest, darkest of desk drawers, looking for anything worth saving from the tepid bathwater of my early attempts at fiction, and, as it turns out, there was a very good reason I shoved them into an oubliette in the first place. Every writer has one…

      Greetings from the edge, Well, if you are reading this, it means I can still be found. I had a bit of a SNAFU with the web address. The way I keep the lights on here in the broom cupboard is by fixing computers. Oddly enough, being a caffeine-fuelled Gollum who rants about horror, roleplaying…

      Greetings from the edge, Still spelunking my way through On Writing by Stephen King. There is so much good information in there, and I am well aware that drip-feeding what I have learned is a bit like describing Dracula as “a bit influential” or saying Seventh Son of a Seventh Son is “quite good”. Simply…

      Greetings from the edge, Stick a fork in me, I’m done. The article comparing the novel The Silence of the Lambs to the film is now live. It’s proofread, formatted, posted, and unleashed upon the unsuspecting public. You should check it out. I’m currently working on the first in what I hope will be a…

      Greetings from the edge, Working on “11 Horror Movies That Get Scarier the More You Think About Them” still, got a few entries done now, and it seems to be shaping up pretty well. I’ve been a bit tied up with flesh space stuff today, but I am working behind the scenes on a few…
