"I'm sure this will be fine," says Percy, like pretty much all of us living in 2025.

THE BIRTHDAY PARTY is OUT TODAY!! 🎈💕 geni.us/TheBirthdayP... It started out as a party: six little girls at the ice rink to celebrate Natalie’s daughter’s eighth birthday. But six children went onto the ice—and now there are just five. Nobody saw Elle being taken. #thriller #thebirthdayparty

Every feminist I know supports their sisters, cis and trans, and their non-binary siblings, concerned with domestic violence, public safety, equal pay, employment protection, access to healthcare, and other discrimination issues. Obsessing over who uses which loo isn't feminism. It's bigotry.

Thank you to the elderly lady on SW trains where a teen snatched my 22-year-old son's phone. She smacked the thief on the back of the head and told him to give it back. Which he did!

Thriller no 21 has left the building! And now I have a few days to relax before the edits come back.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #16140: Don't assume that your desk is where all your writing happens. 90% of the process of creation happens elsewhere. Use whatever time you have. Thinking time; dreaming time; observing time; analyzing time. All this time can be part of your work. Don't waste it.

Every once in a while you find a pure gem of a neologism (that doubles you over in laughter) in a book you’re listening to. I present to you, from @peterboland.bsky.social‘s Beach Hut Murders: FARTLIGHTING

The Birthday Party coming May 2025! Available to preorder now 💕 It started out as a party: six little girls gliding and giggling at the ice rink. But it’s turned into a crime scene. Six children went onto the ice—and now there are just five. #psychologicalthriller #suspense #kindleunlimited

Driving home with a rainbow 🌈 #Dorset #countryside

Sounds about right

Okay but hear me out: A nighttime bookstore in which the only lighting comes from lanterns, tea is served to all who enter, there is an emotional support owl in each section, and a buy one / get one free sale occurs during every full moon.

Someone called this mass exodus from Twitter ‘the fall of the Broman Empire’ and I died laughing. 💀

My new novel, TO SEE TOO MUCH, now has its own book trailer! A small seaside community is filled with dark secrets, which begin to unravel when a young woman goes missing... www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wphz...

Last night I dreamt that The Police (the band) were in my spare room playing Walking on the Moon. It felt very normal 🌖🎶

Finally watching #Bridgerton season 3 and LOVING it 🫅🏽

Me in my echo chamber

We have landed: news and views at @bookbrunch.bsky.social 🦋📚

Word of this morning is ‘procaffeinate’: to put everything on hold until you’ve had sufficient amounts of coffee.

Hi everyone! It's time to introduce myself 👋 My name is Marina. I'm a book cover designer and illustrator. Books are my passion! Although I read slowly. I love minimalistic and retro styles in illustrations. Let's be friends or colleagues! I'm open for work and collabs ✨ #bookcoverdesigner #retro

A sound advice

Book pages should be numbered backwards so we’re always counting down how many pages we have left

Three days of socialising in a row. Who even am I?

Stephen King, master of the horror novel, just quit Twitter because it'd become too "dark." That's how horrifying Twitter is right now. There may never be a more perfect expression of this fact.

Yeah same 😂

Now I’m here, I guess I better post a picture of my dog. #dogsofbluesky

We on this again.

Everyone should have the time to read as much as they want. That's the kind of society I want to build 📚💙

one of the reasons bluesky works differently is because early users waged a successful fight to get the devs to prioritize safety features to protect communities at risk as a result bluesky now has a suite of controls that i think are unmatched on social media here’s the list, lmk what i’ve missed

Can we talk about what culturally is going on with this hairstyle, it appears to be without irony and I don’t understand how it’s happened and why it’s being encouraged (sorry to his man) I need to know anthropologically what’s going on

I just joined this breath-of-fresh-air site, so if you’re a bookish person (or just plain nice!) give me a follow and I’ll follow back :)

It was the perfect romantic honeymoon. Until her husband disappeared... THE HONEYMOON is out now. geni.us/TheHoneymoon
