To Sarah Melville – gorgeous cover art for Oli’s CHARCOAL!
Isn’t it just!!
I’ve just read first chapter of Charcoal – wonderful! have shared the post on twitter. Have said to Jane at WWJ that I’m willing to review.
Looking forward to reading and reviewing Dead Beat by Cody. Would also be happy to review Charcoal as well, sounds right up my street and interview Oli with it, if Oli is interested. Best Andy
Ps. meant to say the cover for Charcoal is amazing!

I know that quote at the top of header board. It’s from Skin Book, right?
yes it is! It’s the bit of my own writing I’ve allowed myself on the site 🙂
I just finished both The Dead Beat and Charcoal. They make such a great reading set together, different literary approaches to pursuing the truth, the nature of the characters’ (the authors), moving and realistic processes of self assessment. I found both works brilliant, Cody’s work very real, even when one hasn’t gone through a similar experience, some of the struggles with self and life have a universal quality, so many details i want to make note of an repeat – Oli’s pursuit of the truth about art, making art and it’s interaction w/ life are brilliant
That means a helluva lot
Just read Charcoal, and before that The Dead Beat.
Loved them both; they’re very different, but they complement each other – a great start to Eight Cuts.
Both are elegant books but, it’s what’s left unsaid that sparked off so many other connections in my head, connections to works that are totally different. Charcoal, evoked Godard and Robbe-Grillet. And Dead Beat, for all its gritty realism took me back to the claustrophobic labyrinth of PKD’s A Scanner Darkly.
Get them out into the world, Dan. The world needs them
Thank you – yes, they go together very well indeed – and you’re right about what they don’t say – both are so tight. I will do everything I can to get them out there
