The Beijing Book Fair
My new semi autobiographical true-crime novel is showcased in China.
An exciting message from Bristol novelist Nery McMahon.
I am so very happy to announce that my new semi autobiographical, true-crime novel 'The Immigrant Veronicas Story' has recently been featured at the Beijing Book Fair in China between 18th and 22nd June 2025. It was an absolute pleasure to see it on display amongst some of the most recognisable authors in the world and so very humbling to be selected for such a prestigious book event. A very big thank you to the organisers and to everyone involved for showcasing my novel to the book audience of the world.
I have also received a whisper that my book has also been selected for the Frankfurt Book Fair later this year. Very exciting times for 'The Immigrant Veronicas Story', for myself and of course, for Veronica!

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.

Valentine in Montréal
Don't be fooled by the title. The story is actually very interesting: My name is Valentine. I am twenty-three years old and I work at a little store at Berri-UQAM métro. I am very ordinary-looking and Barney, who works the same shift as me at the store, says I do not know how to dress. I have been working there for four years, and I have never missed a day. This is why sometimes I seem familiar to people, even though they can't place me.

Wild Card Weekend Recap: What Happens Now?
I think I figured out why I love Wild Card Weekend so much. It's because it's the first playoff anything of the calendar year. The NFL season starts in the fall, and once upon a time, the champion was crowned either on or slightly before New Year's. The evolution of the NFL schedule has resulted in the playoffs starting just into the New Year, and currently, the final week of the season falls on the first weekend of the New Year, with Wild Card Weekend coming a week after that. So yes, chronologically, the NFL's Wild Card Weekend serves as the first playoff anything of the calendar year.
