Matt Cain

Have I got an offer for you! My best loved book THE SECRET LIFE OF ALBERT ENTWISTLE is in Amazon's August promotion and 99p on Kindle - and just over £6 in paperback. This book has moved and inspired so many readers and now I'm thrilled it’s going to be read by a whole lot more!

@GregvsMatt @Madonna I’ve got the 7”! X

40 years ago @madonna released Over And Over as the final single from her mega hit Like A Virgin exclusively in Italy on 7" and 12" single (with poster) These are 2 of my most wanted Madonna records! #Madonna #OverAndOver

@ghostlytom @bertsbooks Haha thank you! And absolutely not Giles! X

@bertsbooks I’m still reading ‘Wuthering Heights’…am I a bad person for not liking Heathcliff OR Cathy? And the death count is off the chart! Am confused at what saw Cathy off btw. Spite? Also reading ‘Becoming Ted’ by @MattCainWriter a good read FULL of likeable characters. Not Giles!

What's everyone reading this weekend?

We #TeamZay have already been offered some lovely lots but could do with some more #K9hour @SeniorStaffy auction

@vwcecil @SeniorStaffy Thank you, Jasmine! On both fronts! And best of luck with the auction! Xx

Look @MattCainWriter I’ve gifted 2 of your, brand new books to the auction for @SeniorStaffy (plus a magnet bookmark) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Don’t worry, I have read both books and these are on my book shelf 🥰

Friends met, protests were made, love was found and much fun was had by so many at #ManchesterPride. It even inspired the setting for my latest novel, ONE LOVE. I’m taking some comfort that on the page at least Manchester Pride will live on ❤️🏳️‍🌈🐝 2/2

I'm devastated to hear that #ManchesterPride has entered liquidation. I was proud to serve as an ambassador for what I thought was the best Pride in the world, a four-day festival that celebrated the long history of acceptance and the rich queer culture of my home city… 1/2

@HurwitzStephen Haha thank you! So would I! And I’m glad you like Gloria - she was my fave! X

@MattCainWriter I think I've read all your books now, including Nothing But Trouble, and Shot Through the Heart. Smashing and absolutely brilliant! I know you don't write that kind of book anymore but I'd like a book about Lola and Harvey and Gloria in the early days.

Negative reaction to the news recalls the homophobia that stopped early research into Aids treatments, writes @MattCainWriter. Read more: bit.ly/4nWQPiH

Matt Cain's BECOMING TED is a charming love story & engaging journey through one man's quest to find himself; an every person's story of coming to terms with the world around you and crafting a spot in which to accept yourself, and love the people in your life, warts and all.

@DamianSerbu Thank you! This has put a big smile on my face 😀

@MattCainWriter: "The gay scene saved my life. Don’t let it wither and die." With the closure of London’s iconic G-A-Y bar, Cain argues that the LGBTQ+ community is losing yet another vital safe space. Read more: bit.ly/4mTWJQe

@CarlowLibraries @Carlow_Co_Co @LibrariesIre Thank you! And to you too! X

@HurwitzStephen Hahah I’d forgotten about that! X

@MattCainWriter Hello. I'm reading Shot Through the Heart and almost laughed out loud when I read the words Phat Phuck. Brilliant!

That’s what I like to see! Can’t wait to hear what you think! ❤️

@ghostlytom @Gayonwye Amazing! Thanks and please let me know what you think xx

@MattCainWriter Ordered them yesterday evening through @Gayonwye independent bookshop so they get some of the benefit as well as you…love a good book to read on a cold, wet winter night.

@MattCainWriter quiet walk along Canal St. pre Pride…last minute touches being finished before the busy weekend when all the Albert’s come looking for their first loves and the Danny’s and Guy’s come to make sense of the last 20 years….

@Glenn_Writes @53two Love him! X

@53two @MattCainWriter meet Albion. 🏳️‍🌈

Happy #Pride #Manchester! Come celebrate with us from 4pm for the biggest & best #Pride #Quiz & #Bingo in #Manchester! 🌈 #PrideDogs #Dog

@ghostlytom ❤️❤️❤️

@MattCainWriter I will have to add Ted and Charlie’s stories to my autumn/winter reading pile.

@ghostlytom @bertsbooks @Gayonwye It is indeed! Happy Pride! X

@MattCainWriter @bertsbooks @Gayonwye I certainly did! I hope I got the ending right…and, as I was finishing it, I realised that next weekend is Pride in Manchester.

Finished the well written, poignant ‘One Love’ by @MattCainWriter a 20 year relationship between two guys…Danny at the ending? To, slightly, misquote the last line from ‘Sweet Charity’ ‘and he lived hopefully ever after’… @bertsbooks @Gayonwye
