Frankie Boyle has revealed he may turn his back on stand-up to write novels.
The comic, 50, penned his acclaimed debut thriller Meantime at home during lockdown and is already planning a second fiction book. He said he will tour in 2023 but may not perform live stand-up afterwards as he hopes to write more.
He told a Bloody Scotland audience in Stirling: “I’m doing a bit of touring next year and then I’m going to really calm it, this live work, for a very long time. I don’t know if I’ll be doing any live work after that, to be honest, other than just trying jokes out.
