Hello people of Goodreads,

I have a new film out for free on YouTube—I'd be grateful if you gave it a look :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOK98...

And consider rating it on IMDb (one click is fine!)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt16795158

Apparently it helps the film get attention :D It’s book-related, I mean I did write it :P Cheers!

Hi new Goodreads friends!
I don't scroll through this site like I used to, but you can still reach out by message to recommend me stuff or start a (nice, haha) dialogue with me about any of my reviews.
After all some of the coolest people I've ever met, I met on this site!
Cheers,
Leo

All my new friend requests come with the message, "hi 7619789" (I figured it out: it's my user profile URL.) The profiles seem legit, but it means the request wasn't sent by a person, right?

Two free previews of my fiction just appeared!
Extract of "Bar Hopping for Astronauts", story in Pulp Literature Spring 2021:

The way some of you comment on my reviews it's like you wanna come round my house and confiscate my laptop. But you cannot!!

I will keep dispensing hot takes at the end of each book completion, so help me!! :P

Hi all! I normally only post my reviews and stuff but check this out! I did a bit of acting this evening ;) What do you think??

Omg, I have so many things to say about this book already. But just to let you know asap, it's quite academic in its arguments, and doesn't read like a revelation of scary truths. You can't prove any of this anymore than you can prove the opposite. It's just an interesting curio :)

Me: Oh cool someone liked a book review of mine from years ago! Wonder what insightful things I had to say...

Me, years ago: "Hm I don't think I really understood this, but then again I was hungover and I had an episode of Drag Race on in the background and I'd just eaten a weird sandwich. Can you relate?? Omg, who even reads books anymore?!"

Dear Goodreaders!! My new book is out today! Sci-fi novella GREEV out with NihilismRevised. Please check it out!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086G8GYCJ?...
Will get it added to Goodreads soon :)

I have a story in this one and the book is very pretty and I've been telling everyone these two things I just have to tell you also :)

Guys my new book is out! It's called Jesus of Scumburg and it's a horrific novella from publisher NihilismRevised :)

I'm only okay at promo at best so would appreciate if you would take a look okay thank you :)

Herregud! Hvem visste at det var så mange ord på dette språket!!

I Oslo i helgen fikk jeg tilbudt en gratis bok med kjøpene mine. En søt selger anbefalte denne boken til meg. Selv om jeg allerede hadde lest det (på engelsk), lot jeg meg at jeg tok det på hans anbefaling. Jeg er en del av problemet. Men det er også flott for min norske læring!

New chat featuring me on the Marchese & Buller horror show!! Enjoy!!

So good! Hates a lot of these characters but eviscerates them so successfully--not even mad :P

"At the rehearsal dinner, I seated small groups of people who didn't know each other together; the only thing I told them was that they all had one thing in common and had to figure out what it was. At one table everyone had lived at some point in Minnesota. Another table was avid cooks."

Okay but this is a geniusly loving and attentive detail. What an awesome person :)

Enjoying this one but just had to note that "he told me to take vitamins so my bones didn't break when he f**ked me" is THE MOST RANDOM and reaching sign of affection I've ever read ahahaha... That's really weird!!
