You still have two weeks (well almost) to get Romanitas for 99p!
It's hard to believe, but 2025 means Romanitas has been in print for 20 years. A modern world where the Roman Empire never fell. If that sounds good to you, the ebook's just £0.99 for the anniversary all this month! www.amazon.co.uk/Romanitas-1-...

You never want to plagiarise but my gods I'm putting a lot of effort into not using "It rains, you get wet." in current project. Such a concise way to sum up the consequences of violence. I suspect @oneblakeminute.bsky.social knows what I'm talking about.

I have a very strong memory of D&D being banned in Inverness at some point in the 1980s because of the Satanic Panic but I can find nothing online about it. Can anyone else remember anything about this? Points if you know of any sources on the matter.

Well, well it would appear that @tadethompson.bsky.social has done Doctor Who (not rhyming slang): cultbox.co.uk/news/two-new...

I can reveal (I think) that I have read it and it is much goodness!
Two new Doctor Who Icons books coming this summer
Two more books in Penguin's Doctor Who Icons range are coming. One features writer Shirley Jackson, while other stars musician Fela Kuti.

So listen, book promo feels weird now, but one of my personal highest goals as a fantasy writer is to give readers a few hours of fun escape from their troubles.

So if you're looking for that right now...I've got you.

(Plus, Moira Quirk narrates the audiobook!!!)
