Stand up for trans rights 🏳️‍⚧️

On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

Never were battles fought,
Never brothers’ blood spilt,
Amongst the quiet Sámi-kin

I'd be super grateful if UK folk could recommend their favourite local independent bookshops, so I can plan my travels with LAND BENEATH THE WAVES from June onwards. So looking forward to my first book tour adventure. Pls repost 🙏💚🌱📚

Here's my manuscript. Cover's almost ready! #LandBeneaththeWaves

Sometimes you need to cut yourself some slack. Hard day out with work. On my way back across the city was lured into a cracking wee Espresso bar on the corner of Ingram St and Candleriggs. Day always looks better with coffee, brownie and some @roseannewatt.bsky.social

When despair for the world grows in me..

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

A lovely walk and lunch today in the snow above Castlelaw Ranges in the Pentlands with Siora.

Sense we might be here more often. Quit “the other place” long ago now Instagram has joined the race to the bottom!

So needed a break from work. A small dog, some richly named Galloway wild country and coffee from a twig stove will tide me over for a bit.

Dips toe into here. My first four followers: Amazing polyglot librarian piper / genius writer broadcaster FRSE / utterly fabulous poet / inspired artist (and writer). That has to be a good sign? Right? (I bullied the genius writer and flattered the fabulous poet but they'd have got round to it.)

Now that we’re here, and the angry people are on X and the dancing people are on insta, and we’re all finding a place; wouldn’t it be nice if there was a peaceful garden somewhere, just for the sexy lady bot accounts, where they could finally rest.
