July 26th, 2010: It's been a while in coming, but From Destinations Set is finally to be made available in its entirety. As Christopher writes in his MySpace blog:

'Started as a piece to offer Bookworks as part of their Semina series, it made the 2008 shortlist but failed to get a commission. Nevertheless, having written a good chunk of it and planned out the rest, I finished it, then immediately gave up hope of publication after a strong of rejections and the realisation that I had no idea how the formatting could be made to work as a print conversion. I left the manuscript with Stuart, and one day, he figured it out and decided it should go out on Clinicality. I wasn’t going to argue...'

June 14th, 2010: The music reviews keep on coming (approaching the 150 mark for the year), and Christopher's work on a number of book-length projects remains ongoing. However, his plan to publish less during 2010 may be foiled with talk of a new collection of short stories before the end of the year.

Today is also the day that Stewart Home's new novel, Blood Rites of the Bourgeoisie is published by Book Works as part of their Semina series. What has this got to do with Christopher Nosnibor? Other than the fact that large sections of Blood Rites are cut-and-paste appropriations of spam emails in a fashion not entirely dissimilar to THE PLAGIARIST, 'Christopher Nosnibor' also makes a 'guest appearance' in the 'appendix' that occupy th last 20 pages of the book, consisting of comments left on Home's blogs.

May 25th, 2010: The lengthy spell without updates shouldn't be mistaken for inactivity. Chris has been working hard on new material for the last few months, and while the longer pieces are yet to be completed, he has produced a lot of music reviews for Whisperinandhollerin.

Today also marks '120 Days of Brutality,' a virtual event hosted by Clinicality Press to celebrate 120 days since the publication of the book Clinical, Brutal... An Anthology of Writing With Guts. Christopher has written an essay for the occasion: 'Reflecting on 120 Days of Brutality' can be found here.

March 24th, 2010: Christopher may have been keping a seemingly low profile since the publication of Clinical, Brutal, but he's hard at work on new stuff. He also has a new slice of vileness which goes by the title 'The Boss (aka Everyday Horrors)' in issue VII of Paraphilia Magazine. The quality of this publication ust gets better. It can be downloaded for free here.

January 17th, 2010: In the first update of the new decade, we can report that the anthology Clinical, Brutal... An Anthology of Writing With Guts, edited by Christopher and featuting two previously unpublished pieces - 'Into the Earth' and 'Some Kind of Stranger III' (a different version of the story 'Some Kind of Stranger' that appeared in Geeek Magazine in 2008) - and an introduction, which charts the history of Clinical Brutality, is on schdule for publication on January 25th.

December 13th, 2009: December 30th sees the publication of ‘A Reflection,’ the fourth and final publication in a series of limited-edition pamphlets released at quarterly intervals throughout 2009.

Its fragmentary, multi-voiced narrative revisits many of the central themes of its predecessors – time, death, memory – and marks a return to the discontinuous narrative forms Christopher is perhaps best known for, and as demonstrated in ‘Lust for Death,’ the first of the series. Unusually, however, ‘A Reflection’ sees Chris incorporate autobiographical elements and commentary within the framework of this semi-fictional piece. As such, ‘A Reflection’ not only brings the sequence full-circle, but the decade to a conclusion, and hints at what may be to come.

‘A Reflection’ will be available in a print run of just 25 copies, available exclusively from Christophernonsibor.co.uk. Advance orders will be being taken from Monday 14th December via this link.

December 3rd, 2009: In between an extremely prolific couple of months of music reviews, most of which can be found at Whisperin and Hollerin, Chris has been hard at work editing the anthology Clinical, Brutal... An Anthology of Writing with Guts which will be out on Clinicality Press in January. And there's more... the end of this month will see the publication of the fourth and final pamphlet in the series that h's been producing at the end of each quarter throughout 2009. Entitled 'A Reflection,' there will once again be just 25 copies, available only via this website. More details to follow...

October 24th, 2009: reviews of THE PLAGIARIST continue to trickle in. The latest, from Simon Phillips, continues the theme of positive feedback suffused with bewilderment. Given that this is the book's desired effect, this can only be a good thing... Read the review here.

October 4th, 2009: In between his various writing projects, Christopher has produced another short film. Entitled 'Supergrass,' he describes it as being 'high on pastiche, low on content.' Watch it below.

September 30th, 2009: 'Counting the Hours,' the eagerly-anticipated follow-up to 'Before the Flood' is published today. The third in a series of four pamphlets to be published in 2009 and sold exclusively through Christophernosnibor.co.uk, it's substantially longer than its predecessors (for those who are sold on 'perceived value'), but continues pushing the same thematic elemets, albeit from another angle, and has a cover that clearly demonstrates the unity of the sequence.

To order your copy, go here.

Yes, this really is the bottom of the page. There is no more. Unless you go here. Or here. But those are other pages.

As you're reading this, you're probably thinking about other things too. Perhaps you're thinking about what's for dinner or whether or not you fancy a cup of tea. It may be that you're thinking about the washing, or the washing up, or what you're going to do on Friday night – where to go, who to go with, if you've enough money. You might be thinking about where to go on holiday, or where you'll be in another 10 years. There's a good chance you're thinking about going to another page. And there's an outside chance you're wondering what it's all about, if there's something more.

Well I hate to break it to you, but this is it.
