Message from a concerned fellow author
From TBM guest blogger, John Dougherty… Dear captive authors Just came across the TBM website. Bad luck! It must be a bit miserable being trapped by monsters. Have you tried getting in touch with a Monster Investigator? The best I know of are Jack Slater, Monster Investigator and his partner Cherry Jackson, but if you [...]
ANDREW NORRISS PAYS THE ULTIMATE PRICE IN A BID TO SAVE US…
I had heard that brilliant children’s author Andrew Norriss (CRTL-Z, WOOF! UNLUCKIEST BOY IN THE WORLD) was going to attempt a rescue. I was so excited because if anyone can pull it off, the man who created Gordon Brittas for the hit 90s comedy The Brittas Empire, could do it! So imagine my distress this [...]
Monster Cooperation.
I’ve been scanning through the archives and believe I have discovered the moment that sealed our fate … the moment monsters began to cooperate! Even though these two were favourites of mine as a child, I’m beginning to wonder if my love of them wasn’t misplaced! Don’t you just love the Count’s laugh? Hmm, but [...]

Blusterfart seemed to take great delight in delivering a letter to me today. It’s the first proper communication from the outside world that’s reached me here in the cave since my abduction back in January. I was touched to see that the ladies in one of my writing haunts - The Bishop’s Tea Room - have been [...]
It’s Good To Stalk…
I read Ali’s post about her trip to Portsmouth central library the other day with glee – she was let out for a taste of fresh air, the chance to meet her fans, and an up-to-the-minute 1950s hair-do. However, when I spotted her monster bodyguard behind her in the picture, my blood ran cold… I [...]
The Rescue Attempt – Part 4
From TBM Guest Blogger, Elizabeth Kay… There was a lot of snow in Poland when I arrived to pursue my quest, which was to consult another monster about the best way of rescuing the authors trapped in the cave. In fact, it snowed every single day I was there. The monster I went to see [...]
Where are all the happy monsters?
Joe’s post on ‘What is a monster?’ really got me thinking. Where are all the furry happy monsters? All the ones I’ve seen in here have been of the slimey, warty, seriously icky variety – no offence, monsters, but you are! Where are the happy, fluffy monsters that I loved so much as a youngster? [...]
A Window of Opportunity?
Joe’s question about monsters on the previous post prompted me to have a quick scan around the web and by chance I stumbled across this: Monsters vs Aliens It seems that Dreamworks have been cooking this one up for a while, but I’m guessing the monsters will all get invites to the premiere … are [...]
