Hi. I’m Johnson.

- waves -

I’m a content designer/writer from Liverpool, England.

On Substack, I’m also a hobbyist writer and illustrator who can never decide what to focus on (I’m a well-rounded human with multiple interests, what can I say?) - so I write 4 publications in one to reflect my 4 favourite things - movies, music, travel and beer.

Why subscribe?

Become a paid subscriber for just £10 a year and here are the 4 publications and archives you’ll get full access to. I also post behind the scenes exclusive content for paid subscribers.

Movie Deaths - where I draw and write about Seth Stanley - the time-travelling, dimension-hopping stuntman who just can’t seem to stay alive.

Soundtrack Challenge - where I think of a crazy scenario, and a handful of songs to accompany it. You come up with your own suggestions and I tell you you’re wrong! It’s so much fun.

Dave Of The Seas - where I write about my adventures cruising around the world.

Tales From The Taproom - a love-letter to craft beer and all who drink it in the hopeless pursuit of the perfect pint.

You also get digital copies of the 2 e-books I’ve written, for sale on Gumroad now for £6:

  • A-Z of Movie Deaths

  • Stealing from Songwriters

If you subscribe as a Founding subscriber, I’ll send you a high-quality physical print of your favourite existing Movie Death.

In the future, I might be open to custom commissions where I draw and print a personalised Movie Death just for you.
