Dismal snapped at my collar and tie with affection. ‘I’d forgotten you could play chess.’ Blaskin poured us all a glass of wine. ‘He’s damned good at it. He beat me twice yesterday.’ Bill grinned. ‘I learned when I was in jail.’ ‘He’s a boon,’ Blaskin said. ‘And I’m in despair, so it takes my mind off things.’ ‘I thought you never got depressed.’ He made a move. ‘Don’t be insulting. My commitments are numerous and onerous. I have to show Moggerhanger a first draft of his life story in three mon...ths. I’ve also promised to deliver a Sidney Blood story to Pulp Books in a month’s time.’ I spluttered into my wine. ‘You’re Sidney Blood?’ A troubled grin exposed his long yellow teeth. ‘What an idiot you are. There must be twenty writers churning out a Pulp Book by Sidney Blood now and again. It pays my club subscriptions for one thing. It’s a bit of a challenge, for another. And then, I enjoy rattling off all that violence and obscenity. What’s more, to continue my litany of woe, I’ve also promised my ordinary publisher a new novel in a fortnight that he can bring out in the autumn, and apart from the fact that I want to give it to a publisher who’s promised me twice as much money, I tore up the first page this morning because it was no good, so don’t have anything to give anybody.MoreLess
