Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.

They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.

Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .

Thank you.

this is what escaping twitter felt like

I feel mislead by all dystopian literature. It's supposed to be a powerful authoritarian government that lords over a cowering population, and and we just need need a few brave acts of heroism to give the people the courage to rise up.

Instead it's just half the country being dumb and mean.

you ever seen a more relatable headline

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie.

An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough.

So finish the thing.

May I suggest a book for the impending collapse? "Surviving the Future" by Shaun Chamberlain and David Fleming has been a comfort read for me lately. A gentle but prescient book about what it means to create community amidst societal collapse. Highly recommend for this moment.

Everyone on here right now
