Big day coming for me on 16th June - second book launches in three formats. If you read the first one and it put you off Scottish nightclubs, you better brace yourself for what’s going on in that spinning red room… #clubmedusa #accentreds #scottishbooks #horrorthriller

Couple of shots taken on the way home from work yesterday - Edinburgh University Old College and the remaining tower from Calton Jail. #blackandwhitephotography

Today’s gig hilarity. Half way through set three a guy walks right up on to the stage and says, ‘Wait guys, stop playing.’ And then walks past everyone - starts to look behind the amp and drum kit. I asked him what he was looking for. ‘I need salt for ma chips’ he says…🤦‍♂️🤣

Played a 3 set gig at the Haddington show last night. Going back to the stage for the third set, a girl started speaking to me. I told her I couldn’t stop as I was in the band and about to go on. ‘Hope you’re better than that last band then, they were sh!te!’ She said. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Not been very active here of late but here’s why. Third book finished and ready to go. There will now be a brief pause as I query the bejesus out of it… #writingcommunity #thefearaesthetic #clubmedusa #querying

Some pics of Rosslyn Chapel from the other day. The Holy Grail and Tom Hanks weren’t available. And I wasn’t allowed to take any photos inside - I took a bollocking for even having my phone out! 🤣🤣 Beautiful place though.

How not to publish your sequel: a thread 🧵 Pay for a book cover before you’ve finished your final edit. Lose your designer to the void. Forget you even need a page count for the spine. Guess who did all three? 😂👇 martinwhiteauthor.com/uncate…

One week in after the release of Accent Reds and I’m well chuffed to say I already have a bunch of five star reviews in on Amazon already! Here are a few quotes: #accentreds #clubmedusa #thefearaesthetic #horrorfam #bookstagram

Have you ever planned a highly coordinated launch strategy on social media only to have it crash like a big crashy thing? New blog post about some of the things that didn’t go so well for me with the new book, and advice on how to avoid them yourself! martinwhiteauthor.com/uncate…

Replying to @AmazonKDP
@AmazonKDP I have two problems. Firstly, my new book was published on the Amazon site last Monday - it is now six days later and none of the formats are findable by amazons search engine. Amazon say it can take up to 72hrs to appear but this is much longer. What is wrong here?

Two pubs that appear in the new book, Accent Reds - The Aviary, in Dublin, which in reality was demolished in the 1960s - and Whistlebinkies in Edinburgh, which is still very much alive, well, and putting on top live bands most nights of the week! #accentreds #clubmedusa
