Pollyanna Knight Hears... A whisper... In the dark... The follow up to the critically acclaimed VIRULENT BLURB:Fractures... Or is it? After being introduced to the splintered Blurb Universe in FRACTURES, Kneel Downe's REFLECTIONS takes us back to a time before the war, before the sun went out. VIRULENTBLURB:REFLECTIONS takes you on a journey from the beginning to the end... And back again

"When Amelia was a little boy she fell through the hole in the worlds....she returned transformed..." From the critically acclaimed author of VirulentBlurb:Fractures comes this mythical tale, a virulent fable, a twist in the VirulentBlurb universe. With illustrations by renowned artist Susan Omand, Kneel Downe returns to his universe and tells the story of Amelia, a character that appears in every strand of the VirulentBlurb, an echo tying the whole collection of strings together. Set in a world of Chaos Lords and Chrome Dragons, Amelia's Song sees her journey through this vast land, meeting old friends and encountering new ones in her quest to stop the Knights of Hell.

VirulentBlurb is a twitter fiction experiment that soon grew to spawn its own website and then attract the attentions of several media companies. Gathered here are the original tweets, back stories and (for the first time) the first three 'demo' scripts. Taken as a whole they tell the ongoing story of this world. Various extras have been scattered around the book. The original twitter feed can be found at @virulentblurb. Keep up to date on the unfolding of the world at www.VirulentBlurb.com.

In March 2016, author Kneel Downe asked for submissions for a charity anthology with the theme of STOLEN. The only stipulation was that the entries had to be under 1000 words long. After many hours of reading, arguing and selecting, this is the resulting collection of 15 short stories and poetry. Even though all the authors, some of whom have never been published before and others who are well established as independent writers, kept to the STOLEN theme, it was interpreted in many different styles and the collection spans the genres, from sci-fi to romance to psychological horror. Never one to shy away from difficult and hardcore topics, Kneel has chosen work that deals with both physical and emotional loss, from the poignancy of lost love, through the emptiness of stolen dreams to the brutality of abuse. This is a small book that hits hard. All profits from the sale of this anthology will go to the charity childrenwithcancer.org.uk

SPORADIC - (adj.) occurring at irregular intervals or only in a few places; scattered or isolated. The first book was SPORADIC. This book is SPORADIC TOO. This time, however, it's a little different. This time there are fragments of the VirulentBlurb hidden within the pages. These fragments matter. They fill holes and gaps whilst creating others. They speak directly to the history and the future of the VirulentBlurb. They are the spores of contagion. Be prepared... (Caution: may contain Postmen)

"Ladybirds are full of secrets," said Amelia. An Owl's Tale returns the reader to a time of traveller's tales and campfire storytelling as Amelia and her companion Owl head east to begin the quest in the book Amelia's Song. The tales told here stand alone and yet fit characters and stories told before and yet to come in Kneel's own unique style. They are a mix of the classical, the contemporary and the not yet invented and are as reminiscent of Carroll and Grimm as they are as new as Noon and Martin. Fairy tales and sagas that are as future proof as they are familiar. Born of truth and folklore cloaked, the FairyBlurbs may be the most important VirulentBlurb book yet. This book is a Ladybird.

SPORADIC - (adj.) occurring at irregular intervals or only in a few places; scattered or isolated. Staccato lay lines in the universal map... Tributes and tribulations... Statements and stories... Punk poetry... Welcome to SPORADIC. Discover the building blocks of a universe you already know and the beginnings of others you don't. This is the visionary mind of Kneel Downe in its rawest form, spewing nonsensical flows of genius... This is creation. SPORADIC can be viewed as an anthology or collection of the brief explosions of imagination that Kneel Downe writes on Twitter. Concepts. Ideas. Short stories, poems and works in progress. A glimpse into his online notebooks. Many of these sparks grow into something larger...many more don't. Here for your pleasure are the ones that haven't...yet.
