My strongest book-related belief is that the paperback should come first and then the hardback after for people who want a fancy edition.

There is not a single reason to outsource your creativity to a computer.

Not one.

To do so removes the very point of being creative in the first place.

Drew Struzan has passed.

His oil paintings defined pop culture for many of us.

Rest well, Sir.

Fright Night (1985)

One of my all-time favourite vampire movies and perfect for Halloween! 🦇🩸

Finally watched The Thursday Murder Club today! I remember not liking the book at all and the movie was...okay? I didn't love it but I had a fun time. It's silly, funny, and quirky. In terms of cosy mystery, I think I still prefer the Marlow Murder Club though.

My YA superhero light novel has been really helping with my mental health this week. It's one of those stories that when you're writing, the hours just melt away. I'm having so much fun with this revision and I love my characters so much 🤍
