Always loved this song.
A #BlueskyLullaby for tonight: Apparently I needed this: "Leaving on a Jet Plane"—the John Denver song made most famous by Peter, Paul and Mary—covered here by a teamup of two Boston-based groups, Tiny Habits and Lake Street Dive. See you around.

The first video I share on here has to be my favourite rendition of Whole Lotta Rosie by Tico (parrot) and Frank (non-parrot) of Tico and the Man (a truly great squawk n' roll band)

Here’s a wonderful video of Neil deGrasse Tyson discussing the science of illusions with Teller (of Penn and Teller) and neuroscientist Susana Martinez-Conde.

‘All the Sinners Bleed’ by SA Cosby @blacktopkid.bsky.social is a riveting read. I could not put it down. I love all of Cosby’s work and this one is my new favourite. Highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Get yourselves to a cinema immediately. Sinners has an incredible soundtrack and the cast deliver outstanding performances. I loved this film! (and please stay for the credits)

I’d heard so many great things about Whalefall by @danielkraus.com and the book still exceeded all expectations. There are so many layers to the story that I went from screaming to crying and back again several times over. I couldn’t stop turning the pages. Five gold stars!!

I know I’m late to the table (again) but discovering the work of Graham Joyce is so exciting. What a gem!

Horror Movie by @paultremblay.bsky.social is a five star read and a masterclass in storytelling. Warning: Tremblay’s characters will get inside your head and stay there… but to be fair, you’ll keep on turning the pages, allowing the horror in. This is why I love Tremblay’s work so much.

Also, if you're using WORD on a subscription Microsoft will have automatically updated you to the new premium, more expensive version with AI for next time you resubscribe.

If you go to your subscriptions the non AI one is still there at the same price but you have to manually swap it back.

Do yourself a favour!
I do not know why my novel WANDERERS is a mere buck-ninety-nine at your favorite electric bookmonger site of choice, but it is, so if you want, y'know, creepy sleepwalking disease peri-apocalyptic sci-fi horror with a hefty dash of EAT SHIT A.I., then hey, it's 800 pages for 199 pennies.
