Des Lewis will be 77 years old on 18 January 2025
Those who have read these episodic brainstorming reviews of mine must know they are very personal — rough-shod and spontaneous. Synchronicity and anagram mixed. I know they are not professional, never potentially publishable other than in the madness of my head, but I do hope they show grains of dark truth and cosmic panache.
These Des Lewis Gestalt Real-Time Reviews were founded in 2008.
‘What’s the loveliest word in the English language, officer? In the sound it makes in your mouth, in the shape it makes on the page? What do you think? Well now, I’ll tell you: E-L-B-O-W. Elbow.’ — THE SINGING DETECTIVE
“How shall a man find his way unless he lose it?” — Walter de la Mare
To any current genre author I have reviewed before — if you have a new story recently published or soon to be published in a collection or anthology, you may have a review by me of the story that also showcases where it is published. See HERE. (This is because I am no longer well enough to review as many books as I once did.)
Fresh Fictions, free to read HERE.
No AI input in preparation of my texts whatsoever.

As a *remarkable* aside, with regard to the Lavoie artwork at this Journal’s outset, his ‘Shhh – watch the film’, seems now highly synchronous bearing in mind the film that came out yesterday on Netflix whereby ‘Shhh’ is used as part of its advertised identity, as well as shown on a piece of paper within it.
Shown elsewhere as CARL Lavoie.
There are some inconsistencies about the film The Silence, but I was genuinely impressed with it as a great horror film that created real frissons and fears.
