The weather outside has been awful today, warm your cockles with a beer, or eight, have a sing-song, maybe even a fight...
...or just enjoy someone else doing that stuff, it's a school night after all.

I'm so much more likely to read a recommendation from an author I like, than something that's reviewed well or has won awards.

Finished Fish! by Ida Keogh tonight.
It absolutely flew by. The story is told through a huge number of wildly different perspectives, passing the narrative baton onto a new POV character each chapter.
The merfolk characters' chapters are a particular joy. Familiar and alien at the same time.

Black Friday is basically bollocks and small businesses deserve your support.
I’m not doing Black Friday this year.
I’d rather be honest with you than try to compete with big brands.
Every purchase genuinely makes a difference to my tiny business.
Shop independent this Christmas.

Had a chilled day yesterday.
I churned out the first draft of a 5k short story.
A reminder that you're not affected by some mythical 'writers block', it's just fucking hard to do creative stuff around life and stress and burnout.

I heard there was a Cohen song,
And all the Christians got it wrong,
But you don’t really get the meaning do ya?
‘Cause you see its about getting laid,
It’s sex, and love, and Jewish faith,
But all the gentiles heard was “hallelujah!”

Ah, I love this app.
In most places its "I saw/played/read X and it made me really happy, it was great 5*"
Here you're more likely to see "I wept ugly tears and felt a profound sense of loss that stayed with me for days 10/10 - no notes."
Cheers, you little freaks.

Tech 'advances' that make things easier, rarely increase quality.
They sometimes increase accessibility and efficiency, but they nearly always reduce quality and block off pathways for more talent to come through.
Art isn’t manufacturing, we dont want it to be cheap and cheery. We want quality.

My Sister's kids love - and come to expect from me - books at Christmas, but Y and YA are well outside my wheelhouse.
The oldest was well into the Percy Jackson series recently.
What's good, peeps?
Nothing too mature, both strong readers, but they're still little and wholesome
