Tomorrow We Work

A gritty coming-of-age story of friendship, weekend escapes, and going nowhere fast

Eddie is nineteen and struggling.

Trapped in a small English village where every day feels the same and nothing ever changes. He lives for the weekend: pints, parties, and the people he’s grown up with.

But by Sunday, the money’s running out.

And so are his mates.

Set over one blistering hot day in the mid-2000s, the story follows Eddie and his friends through hangovers, fallouts, and the quiet moments in between. Can Eddie hold on until the end of the day when everything is falling apart?

Part memoir, part twisted fantasy, this is a story about mental health, village life, and the complicated bonds between young men.

For fans of Trainspotting and This Is England - a darkly funny, brutally honest look at young men, weekends, and going nowhere fast.

‘Like a cross between The Football Factory and Last of the Summer Wine. Gritty, absurd, and painfully nostalgic.’ - Jack Grady

I had planned to have this written by Christmas day, edited by Easter, and out for my birthday. Missed all those deadlines. And then I woke up today to see that it had gone live on Kindle instead of releasing same day as the paperback. Just gonna roll with it.

I'll throw up the info here, if anyone wants to check it out. It's very mid 2000s England orientated. Think burberry shirts, Clubland Floorfillers, and 2for1 shots before 10pm
