Back from my year long hibernation - it was one helluva sleep. Hopefully I can stay up for the foreseeable future. As opposed to writing the same kind of drivel that most people write, I'll simply state some of the things that I think define me most as a person.

1 - Music is pretty much my only escape in the cold reality that is life - The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Rolling Stones, Oasis, The Who and The Kinks are amongst the musical pantheon that I worship.

2 - Those that dirty their ears by listening to the kind of music that sounds like copulating robots are, in my eyes, the root of all evil. People like Will.I.am can just do one. And boy-bands like One Direction are ANTI-music and ANTI-creativity as far as I'm concerned. 

3 - I write as a past time. It's pretty much the only thing I'm half good at and enjoy. I had a lot of stuff on here a long time ago that was fairly successful which I took down. Now I have to earn all the accolades I collected beforehand again. I look forward to it. 

4 - I'm terribly grumpy, in case you haven't noticed. But only to those that deserve it (basically the kind of folks who listen to the pop music of today and such). However, I'm an utter delight to those that are proper. 

5 - I also enjoy gaming. What more could you want than thrashing a thirteen year old American kid who's not got the faintest idea of what football is about 9-0 on FUT when your team is infinitely worse than the one they obviously spent actual money on? Well, maybe smashing your way through Won't Get Fooled Again on Rockband and coming out the other side with your arms and legs still attached. Or, of course, using the Galvaknuckles to smash a zombie's head clean off it's decrepit shoulders whilst CoDing it up with your friends. 

I'll finish off by saying that I hope you'll enjoy the work that I upload onto here (even if the uploading is few and far between) and that you'll take the time to tell me what you think.

Hello!
In a recent stampede of writing I've uploaded the beginnings of a new horror story: It's Dead In Here (a shameless title, I must say).
The story follows four band members as they make their way across a zombie infested England to play the final and greatest gig of their lives; yet on the way each member realises that there's more to live in this new, post-apocalyptic world than thrashing out the last ever gig for humankind - love, a home, even the endless possibilities of a world without rules. 
I hope that you have the time to give it a quick look - there's a few moments that I'm proud of that I think other's will like. As always, I welcome feedback - as it's the only way to get better, and I hope to do just so. 

Thank you for listening,
King Britain.

Hello, there!
In an attempt to get back into some sort of writing groove, I've uploaded a new chapter for the updated and much bulkier version of After Britain - a chapter in which we see Albion under attack from a horde of manics with only Michelle and a few dozen guards to protect it.
If you're a fan of the the zombie genre (even though the manics aren't technically zombies, but do bare some similarities to them) then you may find this chapter interesting, as it does include a fair bit of blood and some decent moments of action. 
I hope that those waiting for an update on this new version of After Britain (a version I urge those that liked the old one to read, as although it's similar it is in large ways different and maybe even better) will find this chapter update adequate. I reckon it's alright; I had fun writing it. 
As always, your feedback would be appreciated. This is the first real block of writing I've done in a long while, and I'd like to know how its come along. Be critical, as always. Thanks to those that do. 

Thank you for listening,
KingBritain.

OMFG!! After Britain is back and better than ever! I'm on chapter 15 and I think the changes were for better. You should get published.

Ah, cheers! Remember, only real men show their passion in such ways. Just look at the Romans. Greatest conquerors the planet has seen (except us Brits, but I'll let that slide for now).

@KingBritain Oh my God I swear I freaked out when I saw that you're back and re-uploading the After Britain series! You're one of my favourite authors on Wattpad and incredibly inspiring. Both After Britain and  Fear Me (the only books I got to read from you before you took it down) were speechlessly amazing! For an entire year I thought you took your works down because you're getting them published but I'm really happy to see them back again, and upgraded too! I can't wait to start reading. 

You are pure awesomeness!
