Hey, new BlueSky peeps!
I'm Will Potter, the bass player in (ahem) "heritage indie" band @cud.bsky.social (still going!). My day job is writing mostly non-fiction titles for children and comic books, such as Geezer and Rich & Strange with @pjbond.bsky.social

Fantastic to be shortlisted for the @sla.org.uk Information Book Award and finally meet illustrator Richard Watson at last night’s ceremony. No prize for us this time but congratulations to the worthy winners.

Very sad news. I had one wonderful evening in the company of Pam Hogg, DJ Martin Green and Carl from CUD, hitting London clubs back in the '90s. She was entertaining, lively company with such inspired fashion sense. A treasure. RIP

Excellent, candid piece from David on his diagnosis and treatment here. All the best to him. Here's hoping for a full recovery and much more folk horror.
I've written a big piece for the Observer about the Big C. Would be lovely if you find time to read it sometime and feel free to share.

Right you lot, I have a few spaces for Xmas commissions. They make great, bespoke pressies at all price points. I can stitch up & frame any of my designs, or create something new- a portrait of the pets, or granny’s favourite serial killers. Your shout. DM or email at [email protected]

Whoa! Sudden, sad news. Great bass player and, it seems, a lovely bloke with much more to offer. RIP Mani.
I shared this photo a week or so ago on Mani’s birthday
- It never failed to bring a smile to my face - and that was exactly the same for the man himself.

One of the absolute best in every way - such a beautiful friend

Love you Mani x x

As I start work on my 7th (!) dinosaur book, I sought out the one that inspired me decades ago. It's factually dated but full of images forever etched on my brain.
