Friends as we transition into 2025 & the unknown please use this for your mental health. Please Worry about what’s in your circle not the stuff outside your circle & outside your control. I promise you’ll be better off both physically & mentally.
Morning! I’d like to follow as many independent bookshops as possible, especially ones who love their children’s books. Can you help me? If you know a great Indy bookshop on Bluesky please let me know. We are @halfwayupbooks.bsky.social (I’m Events Manager and Trish is the Owner/Manager).
The words of Dr King are still true today. Let us celebrate him and everything he has taught us knowing the difficult days ahead. He never sat down and neither can we. #DRMLKJR ✊
Unsolicited writing advice, no. #14151: You don't need to write for publication, or for money, or for an audience, or for anyone but yourself. Joy is a worthwhile objective. Joy doesn't need a reason.
not saying I'm feeling especially lazy today but I briefly - very briefly! - considered buying a copy of my own ebook while in the living room because the physical copies I keep at home are upstairs in my bedroom and that just felt like too much effort
I'll be at The Southbank Centre in April taking about my new novel. For the very, very organised amongst you, tickets are now on sale :)
Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.
Writers: yes, you are still a "real" writer if you - have never published anything - have no readers - didn't write anything this month - didn't write anything this year - can't articulate words anymore - can only float and mournfully wail - were murdered ten years ago on this very spot
Poem by Joseph Fasano. It’s that time of year. H/T to Alice Adams for the picture.
