2016 was the first time I kept track of what I read throughout the year. I'm a fairly slow reader, but I think I got through a respectable amount. I intend to actually read less in 2017, for the simple reason that I intent to WRITE more. Already on my breaks at work,...

It feels strange to write a year in review for 2016. I haven't written many blogs this year, I think one of the few I did do was the year in review for 2015. I won't claim I'll try and blog more in 2015 because I know I won't. I kept busy over the last twelve months,...

Just a quick post this one, some shameless self promotion of my novella! Been out two weeks today, be sure to check it out!...

Since the publication of An Eye For An Eye, every time I've thought of the title there's been this guttural, growling voice at the back of my head shouting it back at me. Then I remembered - the song! In my metalhead youth, I used to listen to Soulfly a HELL of a lot....

Once again, it's been a while since I last updated, but I've been super-duper busy. Been working hard towards the goals I set for myself, and here's some of the evidence of that: My novella, 'An Eye For An Eye', is available now on Amazon for Kindle as part of Near To...

Tomorrow is the twenty-ninth, the leap year is almost upon us, and I realised I hadn't updated here in a very, VERY long time. New Year's Eve, I think. I remember where I was four years ago on the last leap year. I went to see Rammstein play at the Metro arena in...

The newest issue of Thuglit, issue twenty, is out today, and it features my story 'The Captain and the Snakes'. It's my second time there since my story 'Red Eyed Richard' appeared way back in issue three. I wrote it by hand in late February 2014 while holed up in my...

Just uploaded my second newest standalone novella, 'The Pitbull'! It won't be live yet, but it's done, it's on it's way out there into the big wide world and I'm sat here like a proud parent. That makes my current total of self-published novellas five, and as I stated...

My fourth novella, The Mess, is live and available to buy for the super low price of 99p! Link below: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mess-Paul-Heatley-ebook/dp/B0172CF3ZK/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1445804981&sr=1-1&keywords=Paul+Heatley+the+mess Snazzy...
