Kitted out

I've already mentioned Kit Whitfield's brilliant novel, Bareback (now available in paperback form, buy early and often) but Kit's blog on her website is actually equally good value. She talks about getting published, about story structure and just about ideas and interests in general. It's always well written, with chunky in depth posts that are both charming and thought provoking.
Makes you sick, doesn't it?

Aaagh! It's The Mr Hell Show on DVD! Sorry for shouting.


Yes, the whole series is finally available. This show was a total delight to work on and offers a small army of quality gags sticking their hobnailed boots into your brain. I wrote a lot of sketches but my big contribution was all the Serge the Seal of Death stories. There's only so many times you can write 'And then the seal kills everyone with two huge guns' before you start to worry.
Sell your kids and buy a copy. Although when you do sell them you'll probably get more than the cover price of one copy (unless you have really low quality children), so you could use the proceeds to buy one for everyone you know! Or a better car.
And if you have no children, now's the time to think about it, because the market for child trafficking is great, and you never know when the going rate will dip.

...what was I talking about?
