At 94,760 words, I think I know what my new novel is about. And, even more exciting (for me), how it might end.

I'm very excited to be teaching the MA in Creative Writing at the IIML at Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington next year. I'm filling in for the brilliant Kate Duignan while she's on research leave. Fiction writers - come and study with me!

An excellent idea.

Glad you’ve had a great year Martin!

Launch tonight at Unity Books Wellington!

I’ll be talking about my new book, End Times, in Nelson this coming Saturday. Pay what you can! www.nelsonartsfestival.nz/event/end-ti...

Excellent review of an excellent book!!

The cover of 'End Times' showing a skeleton with an hourglass and a syringe in zine style.

"‘You know Granity is falling into the sea, yeah?’ says Maz."

@rkpriestley.bsky.social's new book is a road trip down the West Coast, haunted by the threats of climate change, conspiracy theories, and a massive overdue earthquake.
