Blog: Out Of Office

"So this is Christmas", observed Mr J Lennon once long ago, before asking "so what have you done then eh?"

It's a pertinent question, which this year I would answer by saying "quite a lot actually John, thanks for asking". My 2024 activity log includes more ACTUAL GIGS than I've done for several years, putting out my book about Doctor Doom, releasing a compilation album that turned out to be a lot more fun to listen to (for me anyway) than I'd expected, and of course the commencement of The Funny Comics Fan Club. There's also been a late surge in SONGWRITING, a talk about HATS, articles about The Beano, Dennis The Menace and Doctor Doom (in The Radio Times!!), and even MORE chapters, posters and conference presentations various. All that and a new social media network too!

Put together it looks like quite a lot of ACTION, which is surprising as I thought it'd been quite quiet this year. That may partly be because NEXT year is looking like it's going to be BUSY, with a bunch of gigs already booked, a SHOW about Doctor Doom very much in the planning stages, and that other SECRET PROJECT set to get underway very soon too. There'll also be a load more episodes of The Funny Comics Fan Club, maybe some more WRITING and hopefully some of those Exciting Surprises that tend to come along.

Crumbs, just writing all of this down is exhausting, so I think I'm going to put the Out of Office on and head towards the sofa for a few days. I'll be back in the new year, but in the meantime thanks VERY much one and all for listening to me DRONE on here throughout the calendar, and I hope you have a BLOODY GRATE Festive Season, wherever and however you're spending it! Merry Christmas everybody!
