Jason Cobley

My new thingy!

I had a great time at the Rugby Literary Festival this weekend. It was great to meet so many good people, sell a few books and reflect on my zigzagging writing journey. Thanks to Lindsay Woodward for her sterling efforts in organising the whole thing. Book details are at jmcobleyauthor.com

I’ll be at the Rugby Literary Festival on 24th & 25th Oct. Catch me at the Many Paths to Publication panel at 14.30 on Saturday and/or the Local Author Spotlight at 11.00. All is taking place at the Rugby Art Gallery and Museum. I’ll have all of these books available at special festival prices!

Wake Up in Music part 16… @marillion.com jasoncobley.substack.com/p/a-childhoo...

The advantage of going to a fun comic con, 2 gigs and a book festival in 8 days is that I feel a bit more confident about being creative and also less bothered about craving success. Connecting with authors and reconnecting with comics people was fab. Blog post and Substack article on the way.

I’m exhausted after Marillion on Wednesday, Big Big Train on Friday, and the Milton Keynes Literary festival on Saturday. Two of the best gigs I’ve seen in a very long time, the grottiest Premier Inn I’ve seen, and a great day signing books, seeing people I haven’t seen for years, and now… sleep.

It’s today! Come on down and buy stuff!

All available at great prices with free signatures at Milton Keynes Book Fair on Saturday 26th September!

Fancy a signed copy of any of these? Come find me at the Milton Keynes indie bookfest on Saturday, fresh from me seeing Big Big Train there on Friday!

Hey, why not celebrate Batman day by ignoring corporate owned characters, and instead buying a unique creator owned book written and drawn by an artist with real talent, like Paul Rainey’s Murder School. @pbrainey.bsky.social @dandq.bsky.social

In Leicester to see IQ in a couple of hours. I accidentally fell into the TGJones closing down sale and Waterstones. I had to buy books just to escape. Needed a coffee to steady my nerves, and then a cake fell onto the tray. I am so clumsy!

Two weeks until King’s Heath Comic Con at High Vis Festival near Birmingham on 19th September. I’ll be there with the @timebombcomics.bsky.social team of publisher Steve Tanner and author @jmcobleyauthor.bsky.social with the official book launch of Amnesia Agents: The Collected Edition.

Current reading. Because I’m not angry enough already.

3 hours to go! Get in! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tim...

Into the last stretch, everyone!

TWO DAYS LEFT to back AMNESIA AGENTS! Time Bomb’s mind-bending scifi is collected for the first time in this new book! Don’t miss your chance to pre-order a copy! @timebombcomics.bsky.social @jmcobleyauthor.bsky.social www.kickstarter.com/projects/tim...

Hammer just released Four Sided Triangle for free on YouTube. It's an interesting ethical sci-fi drama about cloning, shot through with some very 1950s ideas about gender roles, but definitely worth 80 minutes of your time.

Just five days left to pledge… Amnesia Agents: The Collected Edition is funded! Art card for ALL backers if we reach £2000! @timebombcomics.bsky.social @jmcobleyauthor.bsky.social Find out more: www.kickstarter.com/projects/tim...

Another brilliant investigation by @jonronson.bsky.social that twists and turns and has a few important things to say about today. Looking forward to seeing him onstage in October.

American people! My book is out in the USA on 25th August! Here it is from Barnes & Noble! www.barnesandnoble.com/w/a-hundred-...

So often what are called “culture wars” are one set of people saying “please can we live without perpetual persecution” and another saying “no, f*** you” but the press considering the latter group have “legitimate concerns” and must be perpetually platformed

Please read this whole thread. This is why I’ll never be rich.

You may have seen I broadcast a message to planet Earth from the edge of space. I thought it was equally important to speak to deep space about you and your lovely little planet. But I thought humans might like to see it too, so here it is. #Clacton #VoteBinface

I’m comfortable, because it was years ago in a different place, to be able to say that I was gaslit to the extreme in a previous workplace. It was a case of upward bullying, management squeeze, gaslighting and scapegoating in a school. It’s unfortunately very common in schools.

The Kickstarter is here for the Collected Amnesia Agents - my new graphic novel with James Gray as artist and designer. Please take a look, share, and if you like the look of it, back it. Forget you saw me. www.kickstarter.com/projects/tim...

BREAKING: Dogs Running

Well said that man.

There now follows a party election broadcast by the Count Binface Party, And if I do say so myself, it's a banger. #VoteBinface #Clacton

New blog post about being an indie author at book events... jmcobleyauthor.com/blog/extrava...

The best thing to do, I think, when someone dies who was a hateful person when alive, is to treat their passing with apathy. It is interesting, though, how many celebrities have died in a short space of time.

If you missed me today, come and see me at the Pump Rooms tomorrow for the second day of the Leamington Spa Book Extravaganza!

All set up at Leamington Spa Book Extravaganza at the Pump Rooms!
