Vic Reeves to Publish Short Stories

March 29, 2007 9:07pm by Such Small Portions   Comments (0)

Vic Reeves is set to shoot up the book charts this Christmas with a collection of short stories. Virgin Books has just announced that the as yet unnamed collection will be published in December.

"Vic Reeves has a unique brand of comedy - witty, inventive and surreal. We look forward to building his profile as one of the funniest writers at work in Britain today," said a representative of Virgin Books, who also compared his work to the dark humour of Spike Milligan.

This isn't the first adventure in the literary world for the 48-year-old comic, real name Jim Moir. In 1999 he published the surreal Sun Boiled Onions, and his autobiography Me: Moir is due to be re-released in March. The renaissance man, who is set to present the new series of Brainiac, has also been cultivating a reputation as an artist, with two of his paintings shown at the Royal Academy in 2006.

Clearly, this is a man of many talents.
