Whattup my little jam sandwiches.
Hope you're all doing spectacularly, and by spectacularly I mean going out on jet skis regularly, doing backflips, resurrecting the dead for Halloween, etc.
You may notice I've changed the Patreon charging setting to 'per creation'. This is mainly because I might only be able to put out a single video this coming month, given that I need the la...

You aight? You looking aight.
Another month, another expedition into the fruitless abyss of adulthood. Nah I'm just joking, it's been a lovely month. Some of you seemed to resonate with the introvert video, others were put off by it and I totally sympathise with the second camp. It was a bit “ooooh what specia...
Hello my little ragamuffins.
I do hope you're having a blast. Figuratively, not literally. That would be awful.
My last video - Now You Happy Always Maybe - seemed to have a bit of discussion going on in the comments and I guess I wanted to reply properly. For once. I usually don't do this. It's pretentious and irritating, and if you have to explain your fucking points after the ...

Writing this on a rickety bus somewhere in the middle of Bulgaria, heading to the coast to finish editing the new book properly. It has just become apparent that the fifth coffee was not a wise decision. My body has taken a lo...
This is the part where I fawningly say, "Thank you for still supporting me and I hope you don't think my stuff is crap and your hair is looking lovely today." So thank you for still supporting me. I hope you don't think my stuff is crap. And you know, your hair is looking lovely today.
The sun is out. The grass is long. The cat keeps shitting in my plants.

What's new with you?
It's always lovely to go back to England, but just for a few weeks; my mother never prepares my breakfast opium correctly.
I do hope you enjoyed the last video. I don't think I put as much effort into my degree as I did into those 9 minutes. It's a strange one, making this stuff, putting it out there, like sending message...

Hello carbon units. How’s it all going?
Firstly some recommendations.
Around a week ago I was having a conversation with a friend about how I never get sick, which is largely true.
Not even flu? he said.
Not even flu, I said.
The next day I came down with a vicious flu. It did, however, give me the time to watch and listen to some great st...

Whatup homedogs.
Firstly, a bit of housekeeping. I've kept the Patreon setting to "X amount per video," but that seems absurd, and it's not what most of you signed up for. I'm currently a bit concerned, however, that if I change it back, it'll charge you twice. So I'm not going to do that until I can confirm it with Patreon themselves. However. What I'll do in the meantime is just choose o...

Well hello, you scallywags.
I’ve been waiting for this day a long time indeed. I am extremely excited to announce that after years of cursing at a keyboard, and months of proofreading, that the book is out. And attached below in mobi, epub, and PDF format for your entertainment.
As mentioned in today’s video, this would not have been possible with your support, a...
2017-02-19 17:18:40 +0000 UTC View PostHola, chaperoos.
Below is the final list for the acknowledgements section of the book. If you're missing, please send me a message via exurb1achannel@gmail.com and I'll put you in. It goes without saying that I'll be sending the book out to all of you as soon as it's released.
All the best,
Ex.

2017-02-09 17:30:12 +0000 UTC View PostWhat's new, homedogs.
If you missed it, I asked some time ago for names I can use publicly of those who are donating. I'll be putting the names into the acknowledgements section of the new novel. The novel itself is being sent off for formatting today, so I thought I'd add in the acknowledgements properly. The list of those of you who reached out is below, but it's worryingly small compare...

What's cooking, homeslices.
Someone quite rightly pointed out recently that I haven't written to you lot since November. So I thought I'd give you the word on the latest happy-haps.
What's new? Well, Sofia looks not unlike the arctic at the moment. Now, I should say that we don't get too much snow in the south of England, where I grew up. Almost none actually, and when we do it...
2017-01-12 07:38:31 +0000 UTC View PostOh hi.
Since a number of you still appear to be inexplicably keeping me eating/sustaining my opium habit with your donations, I thought I'd make a timely update and a thank you.
Exciting times ahead, first and foremost. The new novel is almost finished. Just need to take out a few main characters, iron out some plot points, and rewrite the entire thing. Should be done in no time....

There seem to be quite a few of you since the last update so I thought I'd go ahead and say firstly, whaddup ma brethren, and secondly give the story on what's coming next.
Just kidding. It'll spoil the surprise.
I will say that in the coming months I'm going to try some slightly more technical and
difficult stuff. It's going to me...
Thank you so much for the support this month!

Oh hi.
For whatever bizarre reason some of you are still Patreon donors - so I thought I'd give you all a bit of a heads up on what's going on with projects, and life in general.
The Exurb1a channel now has a new mascot. She's called Cassiopeia and she's about 8 weeks old. A photo should be attached to this post. Every now and then she eats the post or poops in inappropri...

A further update for those of you interested, then. Waking up to find my feet fused to the bed frame, it became clear that summer has now arrived in Eastern Europe.
To answer a question that seems to get asked in the comments a lot, I do indeed live in Sofia, Bulgaria. I was lucky enough to travel a fair bit in my early twenties, and this - above al...

Given that you're still, for some bizarre reason, donating, I thought it fair to throw you a little update on what's going on at the moment.
Life is great in Europe. The people are pleasant. The food is delicious. The sun is cripplingly hot.
I used last month's Patreon donations to, well, pay rent. This resulted in...

Firstly, an absolutely enormous, fireworks-and-strobe-lights thank you to all of you. I don't know why the hell you're donating, but you are.
Here's the deal. I put my PhD on hold for a while about a year ago to come back to the UK and work at an adult job. It turns out full-time work is absolutely abysmal. As of this coming Friday - the 8th - I'm moving ba...
